    My son is in the Wisconsin National Guard and his drill base is Mauston, WI. He is a E3 and he received orders for 3 months to preform duties at the Eau Claire, WI National Guard Recruiters office there. He travels all over the State of Wisconsin. He donen’t have a place to stay in Eau Claire so he travels about a hour and half to get there for duty from his home in the Lacrosse, WI area.. Sometimes he stays overnight at the Armory there. The other day he traveled to Superior, WI with a Naional Guard Truck to deliver some stuff by 1900 Hours and returned to Eau Claire to get some sleep and returned to Superior the next morning to help with the climing wall for High School Students this last Memorial Day weekend. He is afraid to ask Questions about his travel, Per-Diem, Travel stuff and his pay while he is working full time as a Nathional Guard under his travel Orders. He has not received any advance pay and he broke. What can He do? Is he entiled to Per-Diem and Meals? What about his traveling to Eau Claire every day for an 1 1/2 hours to get there. he just a E-3 with 2 years in the Service. Thank You, Grandpa John Hammes E-6 Retired Air Force, My Phone is 608-385-6033
