National Guard Recruiting
Despite many obstacles, recruiting and retention have remained strong in the Army and Air National Guard. Both services still have many young men and women wanting to join the force.
The men and women who choose to serve in the National Guard do so for a variety of reasons. The Guard offers a series of benefits ranging from competitive pay and education assistance to insurance and retirement benefits. A broad range of skills are learned through schools and job training, and leadership opportunities are numerous. Beyond these tangible benefits, most Guard members agree that the greatest benefit is the opportunity to serve their country, state and community.
National Guard - Always ready, Always there.
