Transformation

National Guard Principles Mission #1: Secure and defend our homeland here and abroad We are an institution of people... soldiers, airmen, families and employers Transform as we operate Organize, train, equip and resource National Guard units like their active component counterparts Remain essential – the Constitutionally ratified, community-based, dual-missioned citizen militia (Art. 1, Sec. 8, Cls. 15 & 16 US Const.) Do what is right for America

Roles & Missions Constitutional Militia Federal Reserve Domestic Mission State Mission Homeland Security Homeland Defense Warfight 1636 to Present Warfight Homeland defense Homeland security State mission Domestic mission 1903 to 2001 Warfight (Dick Act) 2001 to Date Warfight Homeland defense Army National Guard

Commitment to States Provide sufficient capabilities under state control Ensure appropriate capabilities/unit mix Provide a more predictable model for operational rotations

Nationwide, rebalance and leverage Army Guard formations for the Warfight, Homeland Defense and support to Homeland Security operations Convert units no longer required through technological advances or strategic and tactical needs Reduce Force Structure, while maintaining End Strength, to increase Readiness Transform into modular or “plug and play,” capabilities-based forces capable of seamlessly integrating with other Army formations in joint and combined expeditionary and campaign operations ARNG Transformation

Strategic ReserveOperational Force Active Service Draft Ample time for buildup Time-phased, overseas fight Threat-based force Linear formations Symmetric threats Single service/component Volunteer/Recruited Force No/limited notice Any time/any where Capabilities-based force Modular units Asymmetric threats Joint/multi-component/multinational Transformation Imperatives Minuteman values and missions transcend time (Dick Act) 2001 Constitutional Militia = Operational Force since 1636 Federal Role = Strategic Reserve ( ), but is since transforming
