United States National Guard Birthday
United States National Guard Birthday

December 13, 2018

In a move that would create the first militia on the North American continent, the Massachusetts General Court in Salem issued an order on Dec. 13, 1636, requiring all able-bodied men between 16 and 60 years old to create a standing Army for protection. With that order, what we now know as America's National Guard was born.

The 16th District of the Department of Virginia of The American Legion salutes our citizen-soldiers who have answered our Nations call in the past and could be called upon to fight again when needed.
