more. Any state governor or the President of the United States can
call on the Guard in a moment's notice. Guard Soldiers hold
civilian jobs or attend college while maintaining their military
training part time. Guard Soldiers' primary area of operation is
their home state.
The Guard dates back to 1636, when Citizen-Soldiers formed militias
to defend community and country. And for 377 years, the Guard has
stayed true to its roots. Enlisting in the National Guard means
more time at home. Training typically requires one weekend each
