A National Guard Unit based in Athens Tennessee has been put on alert.

The 117th Military Police Battalion has 70 members in the Athens area.

The alert does NOT guarantee a foreign deployment.

But it does begin the process of a possible call to active duty.

Another Military Police unit in Cleveland was put on alert a couple of months ago.
