Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

From June 27 to August 7, the Iowa National Guard Emergency Operations Center conducted 24 hour flood support operations. Additional units from 5 other states were activated to support missions. On July 10, West Des Moines and Des Moines experienced severe flooding. Des Moines Waterworks was flooded out, causing a potable water shortage for over 250,000 residents. The National Guard purified and distributed potable water, placed thousands of sandbags, provided power and emergency goods, constructed temporary bridges and assisted state agencies in a variety of recovery efforts. At the peak of operations, over 2,000 Guardsmen were on duty across the state, with over 1,000 on duty in the Des Moines area alone. (U.S. Army National Guard video by Staff Sgt.
