National Guard Soldiers serve both community and country. Our versatility enables us to respond to domestic emergencies overseas combat missions counter-drug efforts reconstruction missions and more. The Guard always responds with speed strength and efficiency helping to defend American freedom and ideals.

As a Guard Soldier your primary area of operation is your home state. Any governor or the president himself can call on the Guard at a moment’s notice. Typically Guard Soldiers live at home where they can be near friends and family while holding a civilian job. Drill is scheduled just one weekend each month. Two-week Annual Training takes place once each year.
