How is the National Guard different from other U.S. military divisions?

We have a unique mission. Unlike the other branches of the Armed Forces, we answer to both state and federal governments. Guard members can be mobilized by either the governor of their resident state, or the president of the United States, depending on where they are needed most.

It’s our dual mission that makes us different. Unlike the other Armed Forces branches, we’re under the jurisdiction of both state and federal governments, answering to the state governor and the president of the United States. This means they may be mobilized domestically for natural disasters or civil emergencies or deployed in support of combat operations overseas.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
