The Guard: Adding Value to America

Abstract

The National Guard is being used in new, non-traditional roles that have a positive impact on America. Some of these roles directly affect the local communities, others use conventional military capability, primarily outside the U.S. The new missions that require conventional military capability are non- traditional because the missions are on-going missions normally covered by Active Duty personnel such as Peacekeeping in the Sinai or Southern Watch over Iraq. This paper examines the new missions and roles and explains how the Guard adds value to America by performing these new, non-traditional roles and missions.
