FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENTS OF

MASSACHUSETTS ARMY NATIONAL GUARD ARMORIES

The Army National Guard has both Federal and State missions. On the Federal level, it expands the operational capacity of the U.S. Army by maintaining trained and equipped units that can respond immediately to military threats and national emergencies – units who can be mobilized to serve in combat as well as humanitarian operations. On the State and local level, the Army National Guard is a first responder domestically and abroad.

“Army National Guard Readiness Centers (RC’s, formerly called Armories) are essential components in the basic functioning of our society. The Patriot Act of 2001 defined critical infrastructure as those “systems and assets, whether physical or virtual, so vital to the United States that the incapacity or destruction of such systems and assets would have a debilitating impact on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination of those matters.” Readiness Centers serve as crucial infrastructure to protect our communities from the full spectrum of man-made threat and severe weather events. A crisis of any type requires immediate and effective response from our Amy National Guard’s forces. Functional facilities in strategic locations is not only the expected norm, it is the essential standard.

Readiness Center components supporting the training, administrative and logistical requirements of the Army National Guard include assembly space, classrooms and distance learning centers, locker rooms, weapons and protective masks storage, and general purpose training space. As the foundation for operations and response, Readiness Centers act as training grounds, distribution points, command and control hubs, and staging bases for first responders[.]

Integrated into the communities they serve, these facilities also provide shelter and vital services for displaced civilians during emergency events. Whether during no-notice emergencies or anticipated events, the Army National Guard fills a unique and critical role responding to major events that overwhelm local resources.”
