What is Maryland Army National Guard's motto?

Since 1636, the Guard has served America as both a wartime force and the first military responders in times of domestic crisis.

Preparing for, and responding to, whatever Mother Nature throws our way - from Hurricane Katrina to Avian Flu - is how we live up to our motto: The National Guard: Always Ready, Always There.


How did the National Guard get their name?

The National Guard was named when the reorganisation of the force under the Militia Act of 1903.

Their purpose is to guard the nation as a home grown force, first and foremost. A lot of that's changed, especially since Creighton Abrams passed the Total Force Policy in the late 1970s, but that was the purpose for its formation anyhow.
