Air National Guard

The Air National Guard (ANG) is a reserve component of the United States Air Force. It allows citizens to serve in a military role while maintaining their civilian jobs and lives. ANG members train part-time, usually one weekend a month and two weeks a year, but can be called to active duty for emergencies, natural disasters, or international conflicts. It plays a vital role in homeland security and disaster response, supporting both state and federal missions. The ANG offers opportunities for skill development, education, and service to the community and country.
