MILITARY FORCES. When the national guard or the organized militia shall be
ordered into the active service of the state during a state of extreme
emergency, or for any other cause, the commanding officer of the military
personnel shall cooperate with the civil officers to the fullest extent,
consistent with the accomplishment of the object, for which the military
personnel were called; the civil officials may express to the commander of the
military personnel the general or specific object which the civil officials
desire to accomplish, but the tactical direction of the military personnel,
the kind and extent of force to be used, and the particular means to be
employed to accomplish the object specified by the civil officers are left
solely to the officers in charge of the military personnel. In case of any
breach of the peace, tumult, riot, resistance to process of this state, or a
state of extreme emergency, or imminent danger thereof, the sheriff of a
county may call for aid upon the commander-in-chief of the national guard.
