AUGUSTA About 125 Maine National Guard members are going to deploy to the Mexican border this fall, replacing others who are currently deployed.
The soldiers will provide support for Customers and Border Patrol agents for about a year, much like the 262nd Engineer Company that returns this fall, the Maine National Guard said.
The soldiers will not serve in a law enforcement capacity, said Maj. Carl Lamb, the organization’s public affairs officer.
