The pay scale of the National Guard varies depending on your class and there are also bonuses and incentive pay for certain tasks and duties. For instance, a newly enlisted Private E1 makes up to $800 for annual training but a 4-star General can make nearly $10,000 for annual training. In conjunction with the annual salary, there are a variety of special payments like Active Duty pay, which is essentially double of the annual training salary.
Both entities fall under the same pay scale. There is no difference in pay.
You receive no pay or benefits while you are on the Delayed Entry Programme. If you are in the National Guard, have gone through Basic Training under the "split op" programme between your Junior and Senior year of high school, then the pay you receive for your UTAs will be according to the pay scale for your rank in the National Guard.
The same as any other state. The amount paid is based on pay grade and time in service. When doing monthly UTAs, pay is based on the table used to determine pay for National Guard and Reserve members for their weekend drills. When called to active duty, they're paid according to the active duty pay scale.
That is usually over 200 members.
No. State activations of the National Guard are paid by the state, while federal activations are paid by the Department of Defense.
A service member serving on active duty in the Coast Guard would receive more money from their branch of service than a National Guard member serving in a reserve capacity would. However, the pay scale is universal throughout the whole of the Armed Forces - an E1 in one branch gets paid the same as an E1 in any other branch, thus, someone who is in an activated National Guard unit, or someone who is in a National Guard unit as a full timer will receive the same base pay as anyone of equal rank and time in service in any other branch.
Yes.
The same as in the other 49 states and it's territories of the U.S.
You must be a high school graduate or senior to enter the national guard to begin with.
A small unit will have about 50 members and a med. is about 100.
There are actually two National Guards, but when people say the National Guard they are probably (but not necessarily) talking about the Army National Guard. The other National Guard is the Air National Guard which is to the Air Force what the Army National Guard is to the Army.
No. There is only an Army National Guard and an Air National Guard.
