South Carolina National Guard 3.0.0

The South Carolina National Guard Soldiers fulfill a crucial role in serving both their community and country. Their adaptability equips them to effectively address a range of situations including domestic emergencies, overseas combat operations, counter-drug initiatives, and reconstruction missions. With a commitment to rapid, robust, and efficient responses, the Guard plays an essential role in upholding American freedom and values.

As a member of the Guard, your primary operational focus is within your home state. Standing ready for deployment, you can be called upon by any state governor or even the President without delay. Typically residing in their home state, Guard Soldiers have the opportunity to stay close to loved ones and maintain civilian employment while fulfilling their duties. Monthly drills and an annual two-week training session ensure readiness and preparedness for any required missions.
