History of the 172 infantry regiment?
The 172nd Infantry was one of the three regiments in the 43rd Infantry Division in WWII. In peacetime this was a National Guard division from New England. Like all National Guard divisions called into active service for WWII ("Federalized"), it received infusions of men from all over and lost much of its flavor as a state-based National Guard unit. The division fought in the Pacific, in New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and on Luzon in the Philippines Islands.

Who is the commander in chief of a state's National Guard?
In theory and usual practice, the Governor of the State. He or She ( some states have had female governors- like New Jersey under Whitman) can call out the National Guard to control civil emergencies such as riots, etc. However, as the President of the United States has CINCUS ( Commander In Chief- US) he can and does have the authority to federalize NG units which are technically a part of the US Army and dispatch them on various missions- one peacetime example was the Federalization of guardsmen to contain racial problems in Little Rock, Arkansas during the Desegregation battles. This is the best known action of the type- unlike deployment of Guard units to foreign wars- for example stop-loss assignments in Iraq.
