EAST GRANBY, Conn. — Normal routines for Connecticut Air National Guard members have changed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hundreds of Guardsmen are actively supporting response actions around the state and many full-time personnel continue their daily tasks through telework.

A constant in today’s varied environment is the need for security and emergency response at Bradley Air National Guard Base.

Members of the 103rd Security Forces Squadron and base fire department are continuing to provide these capabilities with protective measures in place for their personnel.

“We’re maintaining social distancing between personnel working in places like our base defense operations center,” said Tech. Sgt. Kyle Saunders, 103rd Security Forces Squadron.
