US National Guard

The National Guard was deployed to New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, which struck the region in late August 2005.

Their presence was crucial in managing the crisis and supporting recovery efforts in the following weeks.

The retirement pay for a Lieutenant Colonel with 37 years of service in the Army and National Guard can vary based on several factors, including their base pay at retirement and the specific retirement plan they fall under (such as High-3 or Blended Retirement System). Generally, under the High-3 system, retirement pay is calculated as 2.5% of the average of the highest 36 months of basic pay multiplied by years of service. For a precise estimate, it's advisable to consult with a military finance officer or use an online military retirement calculator.

A starting guard in basketball is a player who occupies one of the two guard positions on the court and is part of the team's starting lineup. Guards are typically responsible for ball handling, playmaking, and scoring, as well as perimeter defense. They often facilitate offensive plays, distribute the ball to teammates, and may shoot from long range. Starting guards are crucial for setting the tempo of the game and executing the team's strategy.

The National Electric Code (NEC) specifies that the clearance for attachments to poles must be such that the drip loop from a transformer is at least 12 inches below the point of attachment to the pole. Additionally, for a power riser u-guard, the clearance must typically be 40 inches above the ground or the working surface to ensure safety and accessibility. It is essential to consult the latest NEC guidelines and local amendments for specific requirements as they may vary.

Interstate Transfer is a moot point - there is no Interstate Transfer in the Army Reserve - there is only unit transfer. The Army Reserve is completely federal, and not delegated to individual states in any way. You would have to get a conditional discharge from the National Guard, then enlist into the Army Reserve.

There is no rank of "Commander" in the National Guard. It only exists as part of a job title, e.g., Company Commander (usually a Captain), Battalion Commander (usually a Lieutenant Colonel), Brigade Commander (usually a Colonel), Division Commander (usually a Major General), etc. Retirement pay will be based on rank, time in service, how much active duty time was served, etc.

Civilians can get onto post. National Guard members can get onto post. However, being in the National Guard will not get you access to restricted access installations.
