ACROSS THE NATION: 1-800-GO-GUARD

The North Carolina Army National Guard offers many opportunities for men and women. The North Carolina National Guard has the best of both worlds – the opportunities and benefits associated with the military service and the opportunity for members of the Guard to continue their civilian lives in their hometown.

You can have a military career with educational benefits and not have to worry about putting college off for four years.

And remember the National Guard is the only military service that is State related. Therefore, we offer Federal and State benefits that the other military branches can not.

The Guard answers the call, at home or abroad.

This may include overseas service or domestic, such as serving along the U.S.-Mexico border.

So, what does the National Guard do? Whatever is needed, wherever it is needed.
