As an Air National Guard unit, many of the 129th's missions have involved support of the governor's office during state emergencies. Numerous high-risk life saving missions have been accomplished using the combination of MC-130P Combat Shadow aircraft, HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters, and highly skilled pararescuemen.
