TUCSON - Things are starting to wind down for National Guard troops deployed across the U.S. and Mexican border.

Next month, the number of National Guard troops along the border will be cut in half from 6,000 to 3,000 nationally.

In Arizona, troop reductions will fall from 2,400 to 1,200, said National Guard Capt. Kristine Munn.
