The Govenor of Lousiana is at fault for that.  She is the one who is 
incontrol of the National Guard.  She only activated 2,000 members  with 
thousands more available.  It was not until the 31st of august did the 
Govenor ask for more troops from the Guard.  On September 1st the Guard 
sends in an additional 30,000 troops to the area.  On September 3rd the 
guard send 10,000 more troops and the guard and the Govenor asks for 
some regular army troops in which 7,200 are dispatched to the area.  Now 
you have more than 40,000 troops at hand.
