About US National Guard Day

United States
EVENT NAME:
National Guard Day (US)(1636)
EVENT CATEGORIES:
Anniversaries , Military
Career , Politics
United States
Dates Active:
Begins: Dec 13, 2022
Ends: Dec 31, 2022

DESCRIPTION:

The National Guard is the oldest institution in the United States. It was the first militia regiment in North America, created on December 13, 1636, by the Massachusetts Bay Colony's General Court. It was organized into three permanent units to defend the colony better. Today, the descendants of these first regiments—the 181st Infantry, the 182nd Infantry, the 101st Field Artillery, and the 101st Engineer Battalion of the Massachusetts Army National Guard—share the distinction of being the oldest units in the U.S. military.

Most Americans know the National Guard through service or its deployment to assist with natural and manmade disasters. These include fighting fires, rescue, and infrastructure repair after tornados, floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes. Assisting with civil unrest and providing extra manpower during health emergencies, including COVID-19, are other ways the National Guard helps keep Americans safe.

Happy Birthday, National Guard.
