No, you cannot. So long as you remain activated - even while you're on leave - you remain a soldier of the federal government, and not of the state in which your unit is located. That's why you're required to get a new ID card when you're activated, because you cease being a National Guard soldier from the point that you're activated to the point where you're released from active duty and returned to the National Guard. You cannot concurrently be in two components at once, hence, you can't be paid by two components at once. If money is an issue, your best option would be to find some temp work in the civil sector during your leave time.
Generally, no. If they receive gifts in the mail, the Drill Sergeants have the discretion whether to allow the soldier to have them then, or to hold onto them until the end of BCT, then give them to the soldier.
The best thing for women with natural hair is to get is braided. Micro braids or two strands. It must be long enough to neatly fit in a bun. The bun will be the only authorized hair style. Have it done professionally or your Drill Sgt may make you take it out. You cannot have locks. If you do they may make you cut it off. They did that for a Soldier in my company. Your hair has to fit under your patrol cap PC. Also choose a natural color such as black or brown. Don't put different colors in your hair. That is considered faddish and they will make you take it out. I remember my first day there and this girl was taking out her freshly done micros because they were faddish.

They were vastly improved with the arrival of Washington's Drill Master, Baron Friedrich von Steuben who wrote the Blue book as the Regulations for the Order and Discipline of the Troops of the United States was properly known.
The 'goose step' originates from from 19th century Prussian drill regulations. It was picked up on by several other military forces - notably, the Imperial Russian Army. After the Bolshevik Revolution, the Red Army continued to use the goose step in their drilling regulations, and passed this on to other countries they provided training and military assistance to, including North Korea. In the case of Iran, the continued practice of goose stepping is carried over from the pre-revolutionary Imperial Iranian Armed Forces.
False
No, they cannot. You have a duty and contract with the US government, what do you think has priority Thank you for your services Soldier!

A drill sergeant teaches soldier recruits how to march and behave in military training.
He would drill with his NG unit only if he was not assigned to another unit. If he has orders assigning him to another unit or orders that preclude training with his original unit, he would not train with the original NG unit. Short story, the soldier trains with the unit to which he is assigned.
Drill can help turn recruits into soldiers by training them and testing them from being a soldier and by observing them what they can do
He can be courtmartialed for being AWOL (Absent Without Leave). And unlike active duty, you wont go to jail, you will bedishonorablydischarged and it will be a hefty stain on your record.
Some of the exercises that a drill sergeant might make his soldiers do are to march, run, finish an obstacle course, and weapon exercises. The soldier is trained to disassemble and clean and then reassemble their weapons. There will also be drills where the soldier trains in various combat maneuvers.
The soldier's behavior was ________________, as the same drill took place everyday
Use 7/64 as tap drill and 9/64 as clearance drill
When you're on leave from active duty, you're on leave - you're not a member of the reserve or National Guard, and you don't drill with them.
