Can you reenlist from active army to army National Guard?

No, you must terminate your active duty statutory obligation (the period of active duty that you had signed your contract for) and then you have the option to enlist into one of the reserve components.

It's possible to get waivered in.... if your RE-4 was from a branch other than the Army. If you have an RE4 from any Army component, your odds of it happening are significantly less.

Why join the National Guard?

Can a National Guard infantry become a army ranger?

Depends on the context. If you're asking if you could serve in a Ranger unit in the National Guard, the answer is no - they don't exist.

If you're asking if you can be sent to Ranger School from a National Guard unit, it's highly unlikely. There might be a possibility of you be able to be sent from a Special Forces unit of the National Guard, but it's doubtful you'd be sent from a line company.

You are in the Florida air national guard and your boyfriend is active duty in the army in North Carolina what happens if you get married and want to stay in the Florida guard and move to nc?

You could either make the drive to Florida for every UTA (which would turn out to be very costly and time consuming), or you could do an Interstate Transfer to the North Carolina Air National Guard. The likelihood of you being able to be attached to a North Carolina unit and remain a member of your current unit is a bit on the low side, especially for the duration of your stay in North Carolina. But, that isn't to say it's impossible, and you really need to discuss your options with your chain of command to gauge the feasibility of what you're trying to do, and their willingness to work with you.
