Wyoming National Guard

The Wyoming National Guard is a military reserve force composed of Army and Air National Guard units that serve both state and federal governments. It provides trained personnel to support state emergencies like disasters and public safety, as well as assisting during national crises or overseas missions for the U.S. Armed Forces. Members typically hold civilian jobs or attend school while maintaining their military readiness. The Wyoming National Guard plays a vital role in protecting communities, responding to emergencies, and supporting national defense, all while being under the authority of the governor unless activated for federal service.
