Gov. Baker activates National Guard, other states sending aidFRAMINGHAM, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Massachusetts is calling in the military to help with snow removal, as Gov. Charlie Baker activates 500 soldiers from the Massachusetts National Guard. Public Information Officer Peter Judge said the soldiers are in the fields of engineering and transportation. The governor activated the National Guard just after noon, but it will taken some time for the soldiers to report to their deployment locations. Roughly half of those activated will use heavy equipment to help remove and dispose of snow, while the other half will help shovel out fire hydrants and other tasks.
