Seal of the United States Army National Guard

The Army National Guard is a military reserve force in the United States formed by the Dick Act. The Army National Guard may be called up for active duty by the state governors or territorial commanding generals to help respond to domestic emergencies and disasters, such as those caused by hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes. With the consent of the respective states' governors, the Army National Guard can become a reservist arm of the U.S. military, supporting both the regular army and air force in the field.

History[]

During the 1998 Raccoon City Destruction Incident, the state's National Guard was deployed with orders to set up roadblocks for the quarantine zone and rescue civilians trapped in Raccoon City.[1] In 2005, guardsmen were sent out to Harvardville Airport where they established a quarantine zone following the use of t-Virus in a terrorist attack.[2] The New York National Guard is known to have served in the War in Afghanistan, with experienced guardsmen being crucial in handling the Zombies during the 2014 New York bioterror attack.[3] The Louisiana National Guard took part in the quarantining of Dulvey Parish, Louisiana in 2017.[4]
