The OK Guard Show - Episode 27 - COVID Fatigue
Welcome to episode 27 of ‘The OK Guard Show’! In this episode we invited John Dixon, Oklahoma National Guard behavioral health specialist, back on the show to talk about COVID Fatigue, cognitive dissonance and ways we can all work together to curb stress and anxiety while trying not to “mask” our true feelings.
Remember, you are not alone. There is always someone in your corner, so if you’re having thoughts of suicide or know someone who is, reach out to someone for help and #BeThere.

The OK Guard Show - Episode 11 - New Year, New PT Test
Want to learn more about the new Army Combat Fitness Test that officially replaces the Army Physical Fitness test this year? Here are your answers! We’ve brought Oklahoma’s 1st Lt. EJ Johnson, ACFT project officer, onto the show to talk the ins and outs of the new physical fitness test for the Oklahoma Army National Guard.
Not many like change—we get it—but hopefully this month’s episode will relieve your stress and anxiety during the transition from the APFT to the ACFT. We’ll have more from 1LT Johnson in the following months, including a fun take-over of our social media pages. Stay tuned.
