The National Guard delivered for the nation throughout April, supporting homeland response, strengthening warfighting capability, and reinforcing partnerships with allies and partner nations worldwide. Guard members supported NASA Artemis II with contingency search and rescue coverage, demonstrated lethality and tactical proficiency during Infantry Week 2026 at Fort Benning, and marked a historic milestone with the activation of Utah’s first light infantry battalion in more than a century. Guard members also supported disaster response operations in Guam following Typhoon Sinlaku and trained alongside domestic and international partners to enhance emergency response and interoperability. These efforts reflect the continued commitment of the National Guard’s 435,000 Citizen Soldiers and Airmen in service to their communities, states, and nation.
