The Army National Guard is a component of the U.S. Army that also consists of the Active Army, and Army Reserves. The Army National Guard is composed of traditional guardsmen, civilians who serve their country, state and community on a part-time basis, usually one weekend each month, and two weeks during the summer. Each state, territory and the District of Columbia has its own National Guard, as provided for by the constitution of the United States. The National Guard undertakes federal and state functions. For state missions, the governor, through the state adjutant general, commands guard forces.
