During fiscal year 2009, the year of the Non-Commissioned Officer, Army National Guard (ARNG) Soldiers continued the

proud tradition of serving our nation at home and around the world. From the Red River Flood in frigid North Dakota, to ice

storms in Kentucky, to wildfires in California, to a tsunami that brought devastation to American Samoa and a rapid response

from Hawaii, the Army National Guard has been the go-to organization for domestic responses in the homeland. The Army

National Guard accomplishes this homeland mission while also performing daunting global missions in our eighth year of

overseas contingency operations.

Our citizen-Soldiers are strong individuals with two pillars of enduring strength: family relationships and workplace partnerships. The Army National Guard is visible in virtually every community across the country as the strength of the nation. This

financial report highlights not only our global and homeland operations, but also the family and employer programs that

build and reinforce our resiliency.

Based on lessons learned from the “push” response after Hurricane Katrina, the ARNG has developed a “push-pull” response

with Domestic All-Hazards Response Teams. They provide capability-based force packages coordinated by the Chief of the

National Guard Bureau and mobilized with the consent of the Adjutants General. Each team consists of a Division

Headquarters with supporting force packages. They are aligned with the enduring “essential 10” capabilities of command

and control, communications, aviation, force protection (including civil support teams), engineering, logistics, maintenance,

medical, security, and transportation. A great example of this push-pull concept was the security for the Presidential

Inauguration in January 2009. The ARNG supported federal and state agencies by providing over 8,000 Soldiers from 22

states with another 12,500 Soldiers “on call” from 8 additional states. This was the highest attended Presidential Inauguration

in U.S. history and an example of the Army National Guard both in action (push) and “at the ready” (pull)!

On the other side of the globe, the ARNG has deployed agribusiness development teams (ADTs) to Afghanistan. Seven

teams are currently deployed in Regional Command East and Regional Command Central and the first team into Regional

Command South will deploy in the spring of 2010. ADTs hail from Missouri, Texas, Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, California,

and Kansas. They provide skills-based training and advice to Afghan universities, provincial ministries, and local farmers;

with the goal of providing increased stability and improved opportunities for Afghanistan’s reemerging agribusiness realm.

Specific skills include agronomy (soil and seed science), irrigation, horticulture (plant cultivation), pest control, veterinary

techniques, civil engineering, and energy management. The teams are achieving localized success with grape trellising, animal veterinary clinics, watershed and canal revitalization, and education programs.

Global and homeland responses provide cogent examples of the ARNG functioning as an accessible and experienced operational force. We succeeded in our primary fiscal year focus of providing trained and ready Soldiers for domestic or international missions, while balancing our end-strength to the congressionally-authorized level of 358,200. We increased our duty

qualification rate from 73% in September 2008 to 83% in September 2009. We improved our active drilling status by reducing the number of nonparticipants to less than 1% of assigned strength (a participation rate of over 99%).

This financial report is our annual analysis of activities across our organization – now 373 years old and looking forward

to providing relevant support for domestic and overseas operations. This report reaffirms our commitment to our dual mission and highlights new and progressing programs. We pledge to increase our capabilities while discouraging terrorists with our experience, accessibility, and the strength

of our resolve – the strength of the nation.

Unique events, leadership transitions, and a change in vision

defined another challenging and rewarding year for the Army

National Guard (ARNG). The ARNG made notable progress during fiscal year 2009 (FY09), with initiatives such as the Afghanistan

Agribusiness Program, the Domestic All-Hazards Response Teams,

the Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, the Battle Command

Training Capability Program, the eXportable Combat Training

Capability, the Patriot Academy, General Equivalency Diploma, the

Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program, and the Community-Based

Warrior Transition Program. The Army National Guard shifted from

a focus on quantity of assigned strength to quality of the force, a

new vision for a vibrant and accessible force.

Modular Force Conversion and

Rebalance

The Army National Guard has made significant progress modernizing and converting to an operational force. Total Army Analysis

(TAA) results established an approved force structure allowance of

358,200. The ARNG invested 2,000 trainees, transients, holdees,

and students to establish the Recruit Sustainment Program Cadre.

As a result of TAA, the Army National Guard structure was

expanded to include 114 brigades. This includes 28 brigade combat teams, 38 functional brigades, and 48 multi-functional

brigades across the 54 states and territories. TAA marked the continuation of the ARNG rebalance and growth from earlier versions

of TAA with the goal of reducing turbulence in the force. The

ARNG has continued to grow and adapt to fulfill all levels of its

dual mission of supporting the warfight while continuing to support

homeland security/homeland defense requirements.

The Army has transformed from a division-centric force to a more

flexible brigade-centric force and is restructuring to create units

that are more stand-alone and alike while enhancing full-spectrum

capabilities. The Army National Guard brigade combat teams

(BCTs) are structured and manned identically to those in the

Active Army and can be combined with other BCTs or elements

of the joint force to facilitate integration, interoperability, and

compatibility across all components.

Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, the Army National

Guard leadership recognized the importance of the transformation effort and established the ARNG modular coordination cell

(MCC) to manage the transformation efforts on a national level. In

concert with the ARNG MCC, state-level MCCs were established

to assist with state- and unit-level transformation efforts. Together,

the Army National Guard and state MCCs work jointly to provide

detailed information on the status of the transforming units. This

unit-specific information provided the ARNG and Headquarters

Department of the Army leadership with information on the status

of individual units as they transformed into a new, modular design.

Additionally, the MCC provided information for the ARNG leadership to make critical informed decisions vital to the success of

deploying units. At the end of FY09, the duties and size of the

MCCs changed from the original organization. Reductions

occurred throughout the MCCs as the transformation process

approached completion, as personnel left MCCs for other units

(often on deployment), and as funding to the states was gradually reduced.
In FY09, 43,225 Soldiers were mobilized in support of combat

operations (Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kuwait) with an additional

5,668 mobilized for domestic operations. On July 2, 2009,

mobilizations hit a peak of 65,696 Soldiers in support of combat

operations (overlapping with Soldiers deployed in FY08).

The Army National Guard has transformed more than 2,800

operating force units to modular designs. An operating force represents those units specifically organized to engage in combat,

provide support, or provide service support. This transformation

involves every Soldier in the ARNG.

The Army National Guard equipping levels for domestic missions

had fallen from 70% in 2001 to as low as 40% in 2006. Several

factors contributed to the decline of the ARNG equipping levels

since 2001: changing requirements, equipment destroyed during

operations, and equipment left in theater for other units. Even at

2001 equipping levels, much of the Guard equipment was not

interoperable with Active Army equipment.

Congress has been very responsive to ARNG equipping requirements. The Army National Guard (via the National Guard and

Reserve Equipment Authorization) received $770 million in

FY06, $1.1 billion in FY07, $1.1 billion in FY08, and $770 million in FY09. This funding has been used for critical dual-use items

to support the “essential 10” capabilities: command and control,

communications, aviation, force protection (including civil support

teams), engineering, logistics, maintenance, medical, security,

and transportation.

Dual Mission Operations

Examples of Army National Guard actions come from every corner of the country and across the globe. Domestic responses

demonstrate the importance of training and equipping ARNG

Soldiers so they are ready to render service and assistance to

their home communities. These responses also illustrate the timehonored traditions Army National Guard Soldiers have demonstrated for almost four centuries.

Protecting the Homeland

In addition to the well-recognized accomplishments of Army

National Guard units and individuals in Afghanistan and Iraq,

ARNG units also perform remarkable feats while protecting and

preserving the homeland.

National Guard Soldiers stand ready in each state, the territories

of Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands, and the District of

Columbia to respond to any crisis. This includes prepositioning

aircraft, equipment, and personnel in preparation for recovery

operations. The Army National Guard saves lives, preserves

peace and civil order, and supports recovery efforts.

A UNIQUE DUAL MISSION: MODERN & INTEROPERABLE

Figure 4: A Unique Dual Mission: Modern & Interoperable
Readiness

The Army National Guard continues to support overseas contingency operations and deploy forces in the highest possible state

of readiness. Units have been undergoing transformation while

the Army National Guard is deploying an average of 54,000

Soldiers per year into combat operations with more than 65,000

Soldiers mobilized at the high point.

Heavy demands on personnel and declines in equipment-onhand due to increased mobilizations and deployments continued

in FY09. Between September 11, 2001 and the end of FY09, the

Army National Guard deployed 403,471 Soldiers under U.S.

Code Title 10 authority (federal orders). In FY09, 9,312 ARNG

Soldiers deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom

and 33,943 Soldiers deployed in support of Operation Iraqi

Freedom. At the end of FY09, 57,161 Army National Guard

Soldiers were on alert for future deployments. In addition, the

ARNG has continued to provide trained, prepared, and capable

forces in support of domestic missions.

Domestic Operations

In January 2009, the Army National Guard supported federal and

state agencies by providing more than 8,000 ARNG Soldiers from

14 states with another 12,500 Soldiers “on call” from 8 additional

states for the Presidential Inauguration. Soldiers supported civil

authorities by providing augmentation to the Metropolitan Police

Department with traffic control points, reactionary forces, and aviation support. This ensured a safe and secure environment for the

Inauguration. This was the highest-attended Presidential

Inauguration in U.S. history and a great example of the Army

National Guard both in action and “at the ready.”

In March 2009, six states provided 5,554 Soldiers for dike reinforcement, search and rescue, civil support, and sandbagging in

frigid North Dakota conditions in response to Red River flooding

(with water levels surging 24 feet above flood levels). 

In addition, the ARNG established the Domestic All-Hazards

Response Team (DART) concept. Each team provides scalable

capability-based force packages coordinated by the Chief of the

National Guard Bureau and mobilized with the consent of the

Adjutants General. The response teams can mobilize and deploy

to a disaster-affected area to meet identified capability gaps. The

DART consists of a division headquarters with three responding

force packages. Each force package is aligned with the “essential

10” capabilities (mentioned on p. 6). The DART conducts contingency planning; coordinates with participating states on existing

emergency management assistance compacts and time-phased

force and deployment data; and provides additional command

and control in support of a joint force headquarters.

For additional details about the Domestic All-Hazards Response Team Program, please

see the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

The Army National Guard is more prepared than ever before to

respond to domestic challenges such as hurricanes, fires, and

floods. The ARNG conducts domestic operations year-round, participating in combatant command, regional, federal agency, and

state/territory exercises.

The Army National Guard assists civil authorities when needed.

National Guard troops answered the calls of their governors providing tremendous support to their respective states performing

such work as search and rescue, power generation, logistical support, debris removal, sandbagging, security, and support to law

enforcement. Also, during recovery efforts, the ARNG established

shelters and distributed food and water to those in need.

Aviation in Support of Domestic

Operations 

Army National Guard aviation facilitates the sourcing of aircraft

and aviation personnel in support of the states and territories having aviation assets during crisis situations, national-level exercises,

and national security events. ARNG aviation provides the mobility and flexibility for aerial movement of personnel and equipment, allowing the Army National Guard, as a whole, to provide

an expeditious response to civil authorities in support of emergency operations.

During the spring of 2009, Army National Guard aviation assets

supported North Dakota floods by providing aerial search and

rescue, evacuation support, commodity distribution, and law

enforcement support. Fourteen ARNG aircraft from five surrounding states augmented North Dakota’s aviation assets during the

Red River flood. Without ARNG aviation, the majority of outlying

farmland would not have been accessible due to the flooding.

Army National Guard aviation also supported engineer explosives personnel in breaking up ice dams.

ARNG aviation assets again provided wildfire support in

California, Utah, South Carolina, and for isolated incidents in

Hawaii. Army National Guard aviation aircraft provide governors

and local civil authorities aviation resources that would not be

available under most state and local budgets. Moreover, the dual

mission capabilities of ARNG aircraft enable air crews to provide

or augment local government and law enforcement capabilities as

part of the Army Guard’s defense support to civil authority.

CBRNE Consequence Management

Response Force (CCMRF)

The Army National Guard has three CCMRF (CBRNE: Chemical,

Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and High-Yield Explosives;

CMRF: Consequence Management Response Force) units designated to provide federalized military assistance to a lead federal

agency in the event of a CBRNE attack in the homeland. A

CCMRF is composed of specific military capabilities and is taskorganized to provide a bridging capability between federal

response and local and state first responders. Each CCMRF is

subject to a “prepare to deploy” timeline determined in part by

the Commander U.S. Northern Command and the Secretary of

Defense. Initial ARNG participation in CCMRF began in FY09 as

units from five states, led by elements of the 218th Maneuver

Enhancement Brigade (SCARNG), 146th Medical Battalion

(MIARNG), and 115th Signal Battalion (ALARNG) trained for 12

months to prepare for mission acceptance and provide forces in

a Title 10 federal response. Additionally, the 63rd Theater

Aviation Brigade (KYARNG) is providing the Aviation Task Force

in FY09 and FY10 and the 76th Infantry

Brigade Combat Team (INARNG) was

selected to provide the Operations Task

Force in FY10 through FY12.

Continuity of

Operations

In FY09, the Army National Guard completed testing, training, and exercising

continuity of operations plans (COOP).

Testing was accomplished through monthly communication tests. These tests included the notification of every division emergency response staff (ERS) and group

(ERG) that a COOP exercise was going

to occur. Training was accomplished

through COOP drills. The drills included

selected COOP locations being stood up

and tested for functionality. This ensured

that the systems set up at the COOP sites

were fully operational. Testing and training normally culminated in an annual exercise that required the full

set-up of the COOP site and full manning by the assigned personnel.

In FY09, the COOP was fully operational during both the

Presidential Inauguration and State of the Union Address. The

COOP can be put into effect during times of natural disaster, any

national significant security event such as the Republican and

Democratic conventions, and possible terror incidents.

Space and Missile Defense

The Army National Guard maintains a space and missile defense

position. The Space and Missile Defense Synchronization Officer

coordinates all operational issues with the ground-based midcourse

defense National Guard units which defend the United States

against limited strategic ballistic missile threats; integrated air

defense systems mission which defends the national capital region

against air threats; the 117th Space Battalion tasked with battlefield

analysis operations via satellite imagery as well as network security control; and National Guard air defense and airspace management cells deploying to the theater.

Hurricanes, Floods, and Fire Season

FY09 was another year of hurricanes, wildfires, and inevitable

change. From the high winds and seas of Hurricanes Bill and

Danny to the horrendous wildfires in Los Angeles and Monterey

counties in California, to the ceremonial final “fly bys” of the UH1 “Huey” helicopters in the high country near Vail, Colorado, the

Army National Guard has been active and ubiquitous across the

nation. Fighting the wildfires in the Los Angeles National Forest

was especially poignant in FY09 as extensive fires not only

increased the likelihood of mudslides later in the year, but also

heightened the threat to fresh water supplies as mountain runoff

could become toxic due to ash and other fire-related debris.

the capability to extract victims from a contaminated environment, perform 

patient/casualty decontamination, and provide medical triage and treatment 

in support of civil or military authorities.

Combat Aviation Brigades

The Army National Guard has eight combat aviation brigades

(CABs). This is in addition to the 11 CABs currently provided by the

Active Army. A CAB typically has about 2,600 Soldiers including

350 aviators with an assortment of UH-60A/L/M Blackhawks, CH47D Chinooks, UH-72A Lakotas, and AH-64A/D Apaches. Two of

the CABs with representative structures are California’s 40th CAB

for the 40th Infantry Division and Maryland’s 29th CAB, the aviation brigade for the 29th Infantry Division.

For additional details about combat aviation brigades, please see the accompanying

CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Intelligence

In FY09, military intelligence (MI) Soldiers in the Army National

Guard provided more than 30,000 duty days for support to

Army missions and federal agencies. In addition, 681 Soldiers

were trained in preparation for deployment and sustainment of

critical MI skills.

The ARNG Foundry Program and Army Reserve Component

Intelligence Program trained more than 900 Soldiers from 33

states at off-site and unit locations at a cost of $5.1 million.

In 2009, more than 26 civilian agencies and military commands

contributed a combined total of $4.8 million in Operations and

Maintenance, Army National Guard (OMNG) funds. These

funds enabled 103 Soldiers to perform 18,651 duty days in support of intelligence missions within those organizations.

The ARNG Command Language Program provided $2.6 million

in National Guard Personnel, Army funds and $735,000 in

OMNG funds toward resources for the maintenance, sustainment, and enhancement of our Soldiers’ foreign language skills to

the Command Language Program. Seventeen states received

these funds, providing foreign language sustainment instruction

for Soldiers and study material for 2,200 Soldiers.

Force Protection

The Army National Guard Force Protection program remained

critical in this time of overseas contingency operations. Fiscal

challenges arose in FY09 in the effort to support emergent security requirements. The ARNG Force Protection Branch provided

$103.9 million in Operations and Maintenance, Army National

Guard (OMNG) funds to safeguard personnel, equipment, and

facilities. Resources for this program were expended specifically

to support the Physical Security and Antiterrorism Programs.

The Army National Guard Physical Security Program received

$96.7 million in OMNG funds to provide contract security

guards, maintenance, and monitoring of intrusion detection systems (IDS). These funds also supported the switch from analog to

digital cell-backup for IDS equipment.

The Army National Guard Antiterrorism (AT) Program received

$7.2 million in OMNG funds for defensive measures to reduce

the vulnerability of ARNG personnel and property from current

and emerging threats. Antiterrorism funds paid for state AT program manager positions as well as the vulnerability assessments

for 31 Army National Guard installations and 19 Joint Forces

Headquarters. The program’s emphasis on training resulted in the

qualification of 560 antiterrorism specialists who will be vital to

compliance with regulatory guidance, policies, and procedures.

Information Operations

The majority of information operations (IO) support during this

time of overseas contingency operations comes from Reserve

Component forces. Army National Guard IO expanded support

to warfighters in FY09 and the program validated $6.7 million

and funded $2.5 million in Army National Guard Personnel. The

program also validated $5.5 million and funded $1.3 million in

Operations and Maintenance, Army National Guard funds for

training, equipping, and manning.

In FY09, the Army National Guard heavily relied on its information operations forces with multiple mobilizations of teams from

the two Theater Information Operations Groups (TIOGs), the

56th (Washington) and 71st (Texas), along with mobilization of

individuals from the Virginia ARNG data processing unit, all in

support of overseas contingency operations and defending the

homeland. IO Soldiers were in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Philippines,

and the Horn of Africa. Two operations security (OPSEC) assessment teams activated in an effort to improve OPSEC throughout

the National Guard. The program met with great success and will

continue into the future with the addition of a mobile training team

to teach operations security in requesting states. The Army

National Guard staffs the Army’s Computer Emergency Response

Team, South West Asia, and a number of Soldiers support a variety of other government agencies. Additionally, the ARNG fielded and supported the computer network defense teams in a number of states. The teams protect computer networks from individuals attempting to penetrate Army National Guard networks.

Afghanistan Agribusiness

Program

The agribusiness development team (ADT) is a self-contained volunteer unit composed of 58 Army National Guard Soldiers with

backgrounds and expertise in various sectors of the agribusiness

field. The agribusiness teams provide training and advice to

Afghan universities, provincial ministries, and local farmers, leading to increased stability and improved opportunities for

Afghanistan’s reemerging agribusiness realm. ADT Soldiers bring

their military capabilities as well as their professional civilian skills

and education in various agricultural disciplines to work directly

with the farmers of Afghanistan. Specific skills include agronomy

(soil and seed science), irrigation, horticulture (plant cultivation),

pest control, veterinary techniques, civil engineering, and energy

management. These citizen-Soldiers also bring their personal ties

and relationships from rural America, leveraging the assets and

expertise of land-grant universities and cooperative extension

services within their home states. With the help of the ADTs,

Afghanistan reports declines in poppy production and increases

in harvests of roses, barley, wheat, corn, rice, and broccoli.

For additional details about the Afghanistan Agribusiness Program, please see the

accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Mentorship and Liaison Teams

When directed, the operational mentorship and liaison teams (OMLTs)

deploy to the Combined Joint Operations Area–Afghanistan to

coach, teach, and mentor Afghanistan National Army units; provide a conduit for liaison and command and control; and support

the operational planning and employment of aligned units in order

to support the development of a self sufficient, competent, and professional Afghanistan National Army. U.S. augmentation to

OMLTs builds on State Partnership relationships with North

Atlantic Treaty Organization countries. It demonstrates commitment to emerging nations and strengthens alliances with these

nations enabling them to contribute operational mentorship and

liaison teams. OMLTs do not have a standard configuration; they

vary in number of rotations and personnel requirements. However,

at a minimum, each team will have at least 12 U.S. personnel.

For additional details about the mentorship and liaison teams, please see the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Army Service Component

Command

- U.S. Army European Command (USAREUR)

The Army National Guard provided more than 7,400 Soldiers from

42 states, totaling 147,000 duty days and $28 million in National

Guard Personnel, Army funds to support USAREUR in FY09. ARNG

support included participation in 12 major USAREUR and United

States Army Europe, Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Exercises, Joint

Task Force East, and numerous augmentation and operational support missions. Augmentation and operational support consisted of

engineer troop construction, military police, and force protection

missions throughout USAREUR, as well as maintenance support to

the 21st Theater Support Command.

- U.S. Armny Southern Command (USARSOUTH)

The Army National Guard continued to play a pivotal role in the successful execution of the USARSOUTH mission to provide regional stability to Latin America and the Caribbean. During FY09, more than

4,000 ARNG Soldiers from 30 states deployed to the region.

Soldiers provided 82,000 duty days of support totaling $16 million

in National Guard Personnel, Army funds to USARSOUTH. The

South Dakota, New York, Rhode Island, and Texas Army National

Guards provided a variety of engineer units as well as military police,

aviation, and public affairs support to New Horizons in Guatemala.

The 29th Infantry Division participated in exercise Panamax.

Panamax 09 was the largest multi-national exercise in USARSOUTH

history. More than 40 nations participated in the exercise.

- U.S. Army Central Command (USARCENT)

The Army National Guard provided more than 600 Soldiers to

USARCENT for three major exercises in FY09: Friendship One,

Inferno Creek, and Regional Cooperation. The Friendship One

exercise in Saudi Arabia was a huge success. The Kansas Army

National Guard deployed a company team and conducted a

field training exercise and live fire event with the Royal Saudi

Land Forces. In FY09, $1.7 million in National Guard Personnel,

Army funds were used in support of USARCENT.

- Continental United States (CONUS)

Within the continental United States, the Army National Guard

participated in two main exercises. Golden Coyote 2009, conducted in the Black Hills training area of South Dakota, was a

joint, combined, multi-component, support operations-oriented,

scenario-driven exercise that trained more than 4,300 Soldiers

from 28 states and 4 nations in FY09. Second, ARNG aviation

companies, medical companies, and a maneuver battalion participated in the joint Air National Guard/Army National Guard

Patriot 2009 exercise conducted at Volk Combat Readiness

Training Center at Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. Patriot 09 focused on

deployment of ARNG forces by Air National Guard fixed-wing

assets to a joint area of operations to conduct vital mission essential task list skills for approximately 2,500 Soldiers and Airmen of

the National Guard from 8 states and 3 nations. In addition to

these great readiness exercises, the Army National Guard participated in five small-unit training exchanges with Canada to

enhance combat readiness and interoperability. These small-unit

training venues not only gave nearly 500 ARNG Soldiers a

unique chance to work with allied forces, but also to build partner capacity through shared experiences.

- U.S. Army Pacific Command (USARPAC)

The Army National Guard provided forces to USARPAC exercises and overseas missions with more than 3,800 Soldiers from 40

different states and territories in FY09. The ARNG participated in

eight Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff exercises. These exercises

rehearsed existing operational plans and provided an opportuniVIDEO
ty for U.S. forces and allies to train together in a rigorous, realistic environment. Various Army National Guard special forces

units also conducted counter-narcotics training missions with

forces from Cambodia. The 29th Infantry Division headquarters

participated in the Japan based Yama Sakura 57 exercise. Yama

Sakura 57 was the 28th exercise conducted between the Japan

Ground Self-Defense Force and the U.S. Army.

- U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM)

The Army National Guard’s 19th and 20th Special Forces

Groups (SFGs) and the seven Special Operations Detachments

directly support the combatant commands worldwide through

USSOCOM. In FY09, the ARNG also began the process of

standing up two new support companies which support

USSOCOM’s Sustainment Brigade.

FY09 saw an Army National Guard special operations force battalion-sized deployment in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, and a

company-sized deployment to both Operation Enduring FreedomAfghanistan and Operation Enduring Freedom-Caribbean and

Central America (SOUTHCOM). Elements of both SFGs also conducted smaller deployments to various locations within the Horn of

Africa, South America, and the Pacific Rim. Army National Guard

special operations forces were also active in the counter-narcotics

fight, with ongoing commitments in southeast Asia and South

America. Each Army National Guard special forces group also supported a number of joint combined exchange training events at the

Operational Detachment-A, or “A-Team” level in countries such as

Thailand, Cambodia, Nepal, Romania, Senegal, Macedonia,

Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Malaysia, and Bangladesh.

Participation in Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff exercises included

Jackal Stone 09 (Croatia) and Ulchi Freedom Guardian (Korea) for

the 19th Special Forces Group. The two SFGs spent nearly $12 million in the successful execution of more than 10 combined training

missions with foreign national soldiers, as well as conducting other

special forces specific/pre-mobilization training and exercises.

The special operations detachments are oriented to the theater

special operations commands within each of the geographical

combatant commands, as well as USSOCOM. They are capable

of forming the U.S. Army nucleus of a combined joint special

operations task force and/or individual staff augmentation which

can quickly multiply a theater’s special operations forces capabilities. In FY09, they utilized more than $2.2 million in National

Guard Pay and Allowance funds.

Two special operations detachments mobilized in support of

Operation Enduring Freedom-Caribbean and Central America

(SOCSOUTH) and to assist in the organization build-up of a new

theater special operations command (SOCAFRICA). They also

continued to participate in Joint Chiefs of Staff exercises such as

Ulchi Freedom Guardian and Flinklock (Africa).

Ground Operating Tempo

In FY09, ground operating tempo (OPTEMPO) funding for the

Army National Guard totaled $951 million; this was 71% of the

Guard’s overall critical requirement.

The Army National Guard’s readiness to participate in current

and future operations at home and abroad is directly related to

its capacity to maintain its unit equipment and effectively train its

unit personnel. Ground OPTEMPO is an essential enabler of the

operational Army National Guard.

Aviation

The Army National Guard possesses approximately 43% of the

Army’s total aviation assets including about 39% of the Army’s

unmanned aircraft systems. These assets are a critical force multiplier in the era of persistent conflict and are the most immediately-available aviation assets for defense support to civil authorities.

Since the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the ARNG has

mobilized the bulk of its aviation assets, particularly aircraft and

aircrews, for the various requirements in support of operational

The Army National Guard has a total of 12 aviation brigade

headquarters, however, the majority of ARNG aviation mobilizations have been employed in battalion- or company-level deployments. The following Army National Guard aviation brigades

have deployed: the 42nd Combat Aviation Brigade (NYARNG);

the 36th Combat Aviation Brigade (TXARNG); the 34th Combat

Aviation Brigade (MNARNG); and the 28th Combat Aviation

Brigade (PAARNG).

In FY09, Army National Guard aviation flew more than 32,000

hours outside the continental United States in support of

Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, and

Kosovo. At home station, intense training of aircrews and aviation

units continued in support of the Army Force Generation model.

Mobilized (Title 10) crews flew 67,500 hours. Crews flew an

additional 172,000 hours in the continental U.S. at a rate of 9.4

flying hours per crew per month.

At the end of FY09, Army National Guard aviation supported various domestic emergencies, flying more than 650 hours and transporting more than 600 personnel and 2,770 tons of cargo. ARNG

aviation facilitates the sourcing of aircraft and aviation personnel in

support of the 54 states and territories having ARNG aviation

assets during crisis situations, national-level exercises, and national

security events. ARNG aviation provides the mobility and flexibility

for aerial movement of personnel and equipment, allowing the

Army National Guard, as a whole, to provide an expeditious

response to civil authorities in support of emergency operations.

In the fall of 2008, ARNG aviators were reacting to the remnants

of the 2008 hurricanes–Gustav, Hanna, and Ike–in Louisiana

and Texas. During the spring of 2009, Army National Guard aviation assets supported North Dakota floods by providing aerial

search and rescue, evacuation support, commodity distribution,

and law enforcement support.

Operational Support Airlift Agency

The Operational Support Airlift Agency (OSAA) is a Department

of the Army (DA) Field Operating Agency under the National

Guard Bureau, providing management, oversight, and execution

of a geographically-dispersed fleet of turbojet and turboprop

fixed-wing aircraft. 

In FY09, combat support from OSAA included transporting timesensitive and mission-critical supplies and personnel to, from, and

within Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt,

Jordan, and the Horn of Africa. While supporting homeland security operations, fixed-wing aircraft transported emergency supplies and key personnel throughout the Gulf Coast for relief

efforts following hurricanes Gustav, Hanna, and Ike. Fixed-wing

aircraft also transported much-needed supplies and personnel

during the wildfires in California. Both at home and abroad in

FY09, these aircraft flew 56,007 hours, completed 26,210 missions, transported over 19.9 million pounds of cargo, and carried

more than 100,434 passengers.

Combat Training Centers

The Army National Guard continued to resource and prepare

ready and relevant warfighting units through the ARNG Combat

Training Centers using $22 million in Congressionally-appropriated funds for National Guard Personnel, Army. During FY09, the

Army National Guard scheduled and coordinated support for 16

Active Army brigades at the National Training Center (NTC) at

Fort Irwin in California and the Joint Readiness Training Center

(JRTC) at Fort Polk in Louisiana. The ARNG Combat Training

Centers provide realistic “dirt training” in the contemporary operational environment.

Modeled as a standardized mission-readiness exercise, Soldiers

conduct multi-echelon, force-on-force situational training exercises, virtual and constructive events, and battalion field training

exercises. Tasks are selected by unit commanders and are

derived from combined force land component command battle

tasks. Scenarios, conditions, and events are drawn from the Iraq

and Afghanistan theaters of operation while current tactics, techniques, and procedures are incorporated throughout the exercise. The 56th/36th Infantry Brigade Combat Team conducted a

JRTC exercise at Fort Polk during summer FY09. Additionally, two

brigade combat teams were trained using the eXportable

Combat Training Capability model for pre-mobilization training,

allowing more than 6,000 Soldiers to be trained.

The Army National Guard hosted two planning conferences to

prepare brigades for future participation at both the NTC and

JRTC. Additionally, more than 3,000 Soldiers, representing three

brigade combat teams at a cost of $2.7 million, participated in

the Brigade Command and Battle Staff Training Program. One

ARNG division of more than 1,000 Soldiers participated in a

Battle Command Training Program warfighter exercise at the

Battle Command Training Center at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.

National Maintenance Training

Center

The National Maintenance Training Center (NMTC) at Camp

Dodge in Iowa serves as one of the National Guard Bureau’s

National Sustainment Centers of Excellence. In FY09, the

National Maintenance Training Center trained more than 3,000

Soldiers from 28 states. The NMTC provides collective level technical maintenance and quartermaster training to component

repair companies, field maintenance companies, support maintenance companies, and maintenance platoons that are located in

the forward support company. Soldiers train with actual theater

current end-items and the components from the end-items. The

NMTC also trained 11 brigade combat teams in FY09. The

brigade support battalion and combat sustainment support battalion commander and staff receive training on military decisionmaking process planning, operation/operational order development, and operations orders execution.

Army National Guard Aviation

Training Sites

The four Army National Guard aviation training sites (AATS) provide both ARNG-unique aviation training and augment the

Army’s overall aviation training capacity to meet both surge and

continuing training needs. Locations of these key facilities are the

eastern facility in Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania; the western

facility in Marana, Arizona; the fixed-wing facility in Bridgeport,

West Virginia; and the high-altitude facility in Eagle, Colorado. At

each location, instructors provide a wide range of training for

ARNG, Army Reserve, and Active Army aviators to include graduate-level flight training, military occupation specialty/additional

skill identifier-producing courses, enlisted professional development courses, and training in support of foreign military sales.

During FY09, the AATS trained 1,591 aviators and 1,123 enlisted crew members/maintainers. The AATS performed over

15,000 flight hours during FY09 with an expected increase in

FY10 due to the continued fielding of the LUH-72 and the new

fielding of the AH-64D Longbow Apache.

for Annual Training and also through supplemental Congressional

appropriations (totaling approximately $10 million). 

Exportable Combat Training

Capability

Army National Guard units train in accordance with the Army

Force Generation (ARFORGEN) process to prepare for operational missions and reduce post-mobilization training time. ARFORGEN produces trained and ready units with higher levels of premobilization readiness through completion of increasingly higher

levels of training as units progress through their cycles. ARFORGEN requires increasing resources as necessary to achieve battle

staff proficiency and certify company-level training prior to mobilization. This training is executed throughout the ARFORGEN training cycle and progresses through individual warrior training tasks,

weapons qualification, and gunnery to battle staff training, and

combined arms and maneuver training. This includes theater-specific tasks and higher level collective training to complete the predeployment requirements for the unit’s specific mission.

Post-mobilization training time is contingent upon the amount of

certified pre-mobilization training conducted, the type of unit, and

its assigned mission. In order to reduce post-mobilization training

time, the Army National Guard continued the development of the

ARNG Battle Command Training Capability Program,

eXportable Combat Training Capability (XCTC), training devices,

and range complexes for its units. The combination of programs

and products provides units with the capability to accomplish

more pre-mobilization training and reduce post-mobilization training time, thus increasing boots on the ground time.

Per direction from the Secretary of Defense (in January, 2007),

Reserve Component unit mobilizations are now limited to 400-

day periods, including a 30-day post-mobilization leave. Perhaps

the most significant impact of this policy change is the inclusion of

post-mobilization training time in the 400-day mobilization period. Consequently, many training tasks previously conducted during post-mobilization periods are now executed during pre-mobilization training. Any additional required training enablers (for

example, funding, training days, training support structure, training facilities) to accomplish pre-mobilization tasks are presently

funded through overseas contingency operations supplementals.

In order to provide the critical, culminating company-level collective training event of ARFORGEN, the Army National Guard continues to execute the XCTC activities. The XCTC program is a theater-immersion collective training event of combined arms training

in the contemporary operating environment. It incorporates current techniques, tactics, and procedures and theater-specific lessons learned to units conducting pre-mobilization training in

preparation for deployment. XCTC provides a method to certify

ARNG units on company-level collective training tasks and

demonstrated battle staff proficiency prior to mobilization. The

XCTC incorporates the use of advanced live, virtual, and constructive training technologies (deployable force-on-force instrumented range systems) that allow for full instrumentation of the

training area, individual Soldiers, role players, civilians on the

battlefield, and opposing forces. By full instrumentation of the

units, Soldiers, and training areas, units receive an after-action

review, complete with two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and

video playback of the actual XCTC training exercise. This allows

commanders and Soldiers to see what occurred during the training exercise from every perspective, further enhancing the training experience.

For additional details about the eXportable Combat Training Capabilities, please see

the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Battle Command Training CenterLeavenworth

The Battle Command Training Center-Leavenworth (BCTC-Lvn)

facility provides battle command and staff training, training support, and publications to Army National Guard Soldiers and

units, at its facility or via mobile training teams (MTT), prior to

mobilization to assist them to prepare for full-spectrum operations

in a joint, interagency, intergovernmental, and multinational environment. BCTC-Lvn, a federal field operating agency of the

ARNG, employs more than 100 personnel at its 42-acre, 16-

building campus at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas. The BCTC-Lvn

buildings have 140,000 square feet of indoor training space. The

training complex was designed to host Division Warfighter

Exercises and can also accommodate other large command post

exercises. BCTC-Lvn has two field training sites totaling 2.9 acres

equipped with power and communications infrastructure. These

BCTC-Lvn’s facility also houses the Kansas Army National Guard

(KSARNG) 35th Division’s Headquarters.

The BCTC-Lvn coordinates three programs: the Army Battle

Command Systems-Support Team (ABCS-ST), the Battalion Staff

Training Team (BSTT), and the Training Analysis Feedback Team

(TAFT).

BCTC-Lvn provides its services to ARNG Soldiers and units at no

cost to the unit. In FY09, BCTC-Lvn trained a total of 10,500

personnel from 290 units at over 300 events at its facility and

via MTTs. This training significantly enhanced the battle command capabilities of ARNG Soldiers, staffs, and commanders,

better preparing them for mobilization and deployment.

please see the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Professional Education Center

The Laverne E. Weber Professional Education Center (PEC), located at Camp Robinson in North Little Rock, Arkansas, is the national training center for the Army National Guard. PEC has been a

full-service training and conferencing facility since 1974. PEC has

undergone changes to its leadership, staff, facilities, training

methodologies, and conference support and the new team is

committed to providing “excellence in education to the total

force.” At the heart of the education center are seven training centers: Human Resources and Readiness Training Center;

Information Technology Training Center; Installations, Logistics,

and Environmental Training Center; Organizational Readiness

Training Center; Strength Maintenance Training Center; Resource

Management Training Center; and the Education Support Center.

All of these training centers have continued to perform their goals

and objectives for another successful year, but a few of these centers have had some extraordinary accomplishments in FY09.

- Information Technology Training Center

Modernization and transformation of the Army has resulted in a

greatly increased requirement for Soldiers trained as information

technology specialists, military occupational specialty (MOS)

25B. At the end of FY09, the Army National Guard had more

than 3,000 Soldiers who required this training. To help alleviate

this shortage, the Arkansas National Guard Regional Training

Institute, with the assistance of the Information Technology

Training Center at the Professional Education Center, stood up an

information technology specialist training program. This training is

accredited by the U.S. Army Signal School at Fort Gordon,

Georgia. Utilizing the Arkansas National Guard Regional

Training Institute school structure and PEC’s equipment and experience, the two organizations trained more than 40 Soldiers in

MOS 25B during FY09 and are on track to train 100 Soldiers

during FY10.

- Installations, Logistics, and Environmental Training Center

The Installations, Logistics, and Environmental Training Center

attracted more than 10,000 students in FY09 to resident, new

equipment training and distance learning courses. Programs of

instruction for 75 courses included Standard Army Management

Information Systems, Geographic Information Systems,

Transportation of Hazardous Materiel, Support Operations

Course, Electronic Security Systems certification, Officer

Professional Development, Chief Facilities Management Office

certification, and food service. Classes were one or two weeks in

duration and designed to train the most critical tasks associated

with specific duty positions.

- GED Plus Program

During its first year (in FY07), the General Educational

Development (GED) Plus Program trained 709 Soldiers, with a

73% success rate. In FY08 and in FY09, the program trained

2,400 Soldiers with a 95% success rate each year, which is significantly higher than the 69% national average success rate

achieved by typical civilian GED programs. In FY09, the

National Guard also began construction of an $18 million GED

PLUS educational complex on the PEC campus. Once complete,

the GED PLUS Program will increase training to more than 7,500

Soldiers per year.

In FY09, the Army National Guard began sending some Soldiers

directly from GED PLUS to basic training, without returning to their

home stations; this practice will continue into FY10. This will

ensure that all GED PLUS graduates attend basic training and

improve the military occupational specialty qualification rate for

this group of Soldiers.

For additional details about the General Educational Development Plus Program,

please see the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

- The Patriot Academy

The Patriot Academy, a pilot program initiative, based at

Muscatatuck Urban Training Center in Butlerville, Indiana, enrolls

qualifying initial entry Soldiers that have not completed their high

school education and provides them with dedicated instruction to

complete their studies toward earning a high school diploma. This

program is open to recruits across the nation and is the only program of its kind administered by the military.

Soldiers/students receive full-time military pay and benefits as

they receive their education and military training. The Patriot

Academy stood up operations in June, 2009, with an initial

enrollment of 46 Soldiers/students and staff/cadre strength of

30. The Patriot Academy is designed to grow to a throughput of

500 Soldiers/students per year.

The Patriot Academy received its Indiana educational accreditation in September, 2009, in order to award a state of Indiana

high school diploma. The impact is that recruiters can now enlist

Soldiers as tier 1 Soldiers and thus open more opportunities
throughout their military career. From a civilian perspective, these

students will be able to move into the work force and receive a

higher quality job. 

For additional details about the Patriot Academy, please see the accompanying CD, or,

if viewing online, click here.

Training Support

The Sustainable Range Program includes the Range and Training

Land Program and the Integrated Training Area Management

Program. Together they provide the necessary support for the

operation and maintenance of ranges and maneuver land. These

programs fund support of operations and training on approximately 2 million acres of land, 2,500 ranges, and more than 120

Army National Guard Training Centers. As the focal point for predeployment training, the ARNG maintains 16 major training centers in 14 states and 1 territory. In FY09, the Army National

Guard also invested in major range construction projects in

Arkansas, California, Idaho, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi,

Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming in support

of the ARNG Army Force Generation range strategy. At the end

of FY09, the Army National Guard had approximately 200

ranges that still required upgrades to meet Army standards. Part

of this investment continued to be the development of an

Advanced Urban Training Capability at the Muscatatuck Urban

Training Center (MUTC), a sub-installation of Camp Atterbury,

Indiana.

Muscatatuck is a self-contained training environment. This 974-

acre site, managed by the Indiana National Guard, is evolving

into a full-immersion contemporary urban training center. Units

training at MUTC have access to a 180-acre reservoir and urban

infrastructure consisting of 68 major buildings including a school,

hospital, dormitories, light industrial structures, single-family

dwellings, a dining facility, and administrative buildings totaling

approximately 850,000 square feet of floor space. The training

area also includes an extensive underground utility tunnel system

and more than nine miles of roads. The buildings are concentrated in a tight geographical area which provides a dense urban

training area. The center is a consortium of governmental, public,

and private entities that pool their unique capabilities to provide

the most realistic training experience possible. Training can be tailored to replicate both foreign and domestic scenarios and can

be used by various civilian and military organizations.

More than 75,000 trainees from military, government, and private

agencies used the facilities in FY09; including Army National

Guard troops, firefighters, police officers, and other first responders.

Individual Training

The Army National Guard continues to plan, program, budget,

and execute schools funding for each state, the three territories,

and the District of Columbia based on the Army Program for

Individual Training (ARPRINT). ARPRINT school costs are calculated based on the Individual Training Resource Model and distributed to states according to the Army Training Requirements

and Resources System Funding Allocation Model with guidance

from the ARNG Directorate. In FY09, initial skills were funded at

the highest levels since FY04 to support duty military occupational skill qualification (DMOSQ). With the support of supplemental

funds, more than $522 million was allocated to the states and territories to train Soldiers, allowing the Training Division to exceed

the DMOSQ goal of 85% by 4.5% (to 89.5%). The number of

qualified Army National Guard Soldiers is up 10,500 from a

year ago. The 35,000 backlog of non-DMOSQ Soldiers requiring reclassification in different or new military occupational skills

was brought in line at manageable levels with sustainment levels

being programmed for FY10 and beyond. The proactive management and involvement at all levels within the states and U.S.

territories proves that the proper resource levels do equate to

measured success.

During FY09, the National Guard Bureau trained more than

2,000 Soldiers to use the Digital Training Management System

(DTMS) to manage Soldier training. DTMS contains all of the current southwest Asia pre-deployment tasks and Army Warrior

Tasks required by U.S. Army Forces Command for leaders to

record and report the status of Soldier training and readiness.

The Guard Strength Enterprise (GSE) organization was created

in FY09 to bring the Army National Guard in line with the Army

Enterprise in order to better coordinate and synchronize with the

Army Accessions Command. GSE has a concise mission: man a

ready force. In accomplishing its mission, its core competencies

are developing overarching manning strategies; managing

recruiting and retention operations; and implementing education,

employment and incentive programs that shape the force to meet

the ARNG’s operational demands. 

Recruiting and Retention

FY09 was another record-setting year for recruiting and retention.

The Army National Guard recruited quality Soldiers, retained

qualified Soldiers, and managed attrition to minimize losses and

turnover in the ranks. At the end of FY09, 24 states were at or

above 100% manning and the other 30 entities were at 97.8% or

better. We met the challenge of finishing the year at 358,200

(358,391 actual strength). Simultaneously, we achieved impressive levels of readiness and deployability.

Full-Time Support

Today’s full-time personnel are major contributors

across the full spectrum of Army National Guard

operations. Meeting the needs of the persistent

conflict underscores the vital role full-time support

(FTS) personnel have in preparing units for the

multitude of missions at home and abroad. The

ARNG FTS Program consists of both military technicians and Active Guard Reserve (AGR)

Soldiers. Full-time personnel sustain the day-today operations of the entire ARNG. The readiness levels of Army National Guard units are

directly tied to the Full-Time Support Program.

The previously-validated Army National Guard full-time support

requirement was 84,862 (technician: 42,329; AGR: 42,533). This

requirement was based on the ARNG’s former mission as a strategic reserve. The AGR authorizations are 75% and technician

authorizations are 68% of the requirements for a strategic reserve.

The Army National Guard is now an operational force and its FTS

needs are well above the current authorized levels. To maintain the

appropriate level of readiness for mobilizations, Active Guard

Reserve and technician requirements must be increased to previously validated numbers while manpower studies are conducted to

determine the ongoing demands of an operational force.

For additional details about full-time support, please see the accompanying CD, or, if

viewing online, click here.

Warrior Transition Units

To provide the best support and transition assistance for wounded,

injured, and ill Soldiers, the Army National Guard continued to

support the Army’s warrior transition units (WTUs) and community-based warrior transition units (CBWTUs) with over 600 mobilized or contingency operation for active duty operational support

Soldiers in positions at all levels of the organization from squad

leader to battalion commander. The WTUs provide non-clinical

support, complex case management, and transition assistance for

Soldiers of all components at medical treatment facilities on Active

Army installations. The CBWTUs provide high-quality health care,

administrative processing, and transition assistance for recuperating Reserve Component Soldiers while allowing them to live at

home and perform duties close to their homes and families (these

Soldiers work at a reserve center within the confines of their profiles). At the end of FY09, the WTUs managed more than 1,500

Army National Guard Soldiers and the CBWTU Program managed more than 900 ARNG Soldiers throughout the U.S.

Family Readiness Programs

The Army National Guard remains committed to supporting the

families of deployed Soldiers throughout the deployment cycle.

Family readiness is not an option; it is an essential part of the

ARNG mission. Every Soldier needs a support structure and a

network of protection that includes self readiness, within a circle

of family support, within a circle of unit and community support,

and within the larger enclosures of state and national support.

Army National Guard families were supported in numerous ways

in FY09. The National Guard Bureau’s Family Program Office for

the Guard Family Team Building Program provided families with

training via computer-based modules, centralized classes, and

locally-provided training to help make families self-reliant throughout the deployment cycle process. The Army Well-Being Program

established the Army Families Online website, an information portal for families of National Guard Soldiers. The Department of

Defense Military OneSource Program provided benefits which

include counseling services, resources for parents, assistance with

consumer credit, and online tax return preparation for all military

families. The ARNG Family Assistance Centers (FACs) provided

information, referrals, and outreach to families of geographicallydispersed Active and Reserve Component members from all services.

Family Assistance Centers

During FY09, the Army National Guard maintained and sustained 342 Family Assistance Centers (FACs) at an investment of

$30 million. Personnel costs and operational expenses supported

more than 450 FAC specialists, youth deployment specialists, and

FAC coordinators. Most Family Assistance Centers are staffed

with contractor personnel and augmented with volunteers, military personnel, and state employees.

For additional details about Family Assistance Centers, please see the accompanying

CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Resiliency Training Center

The Resiliency Training Center focuses on prevention through

proactive marriage workshops and stress-relief training before,

during, and after deployments. The main goal of the resiliency

program is to create “resilient” service members and families. The

mission of the program is to provide a continuum of care, including a comprehensive range of education, training, and the tools

necessary to cope with high levels of stress. This includes the skills

to accurately identify potential problems and the team effort of

developing both individual and group techniques for surviving

and prospering in times of great stress.

The Resiliency Training Program rolled out five courses in FY09 by

collaborating with Army and Battlemind leaders on their course

material, leading military personnel and mental health experts, and

working with leading researchers in the stress management field.

This included teaming with course developers from the American

Association of Emergency Psychiatrists, the Walter Reed Institute for

Research, the National Defense University, the Military Family

Institute at Kansas State University, and partnering states of

California, Kansas, Michigan, New Jersey, Connecticut, Iowa,

Illinois, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. The Tragedy Assistance

Program for Survivors partnership allows Guard members to access

crisis intervention professionals no matter where they live.

The Resiliency Training Center plans to continue to use all available traditional and modern communication tools, including

onland and online training, iPods and Podcasts, web sites,

EmWave, social networking, professional speakers and trainers,

videos, and small group discussions. The Army National Guard

has been appointing suicide intervention officers to every ARNG

company nationwide. Each state and territory has a trained suicide prevention program manager. Also, each state and territory

has hired or will be hiring a Director of Psychological Health

(DPH) to provide case management and resourcing support for

Soldiers in crisis. At the end of FY09, 40 of 54 DPHs were hired.

Freedom Salute Campaign

FY09 was a very active year for the Freedom Salute Campaign.

As one of the largest Army National Guard recognition endeavors in history, the Freedom Salute Campaign publicly acknowledges ARNG Soldiers and those who supported them during the

President’s call to duty.

The Freedom Salute Campaign is considered to be an important tool

in the recruiting and retention program. The way an organization

treats its people is a direct reflection of that organization’s values;

parents, prospects, other Soldiers, and families pay attention to how

the ARNG treats returning Soldiers. The Freedom Salute Campaign

increases community awareness throughout the nation of the good

work being done by Guard Soldiers. In a recent survey, Soldiers

returning from Operation Iraqi Freedom indicated that recognition

for their service and sacrifice was one of the most important contributing factors in their decision to continue to serve in the Guard.

Strong Bonds Program

The Strong Bonds Program is a Commander’s Program that is unitbased and chaplain-led to help Soldiers and their families build

strong relationships. The Army National Guard executed $7.2

million in FY09 in support of this program.

For additional details about the Strong Bonds Program, please see the accompanying

CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Yellow Ribbon 

Reintegration 

The Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program provides information,

services, referrals, and proactive outreach to Soldiers, spouses,

employers, and youth throughout mobilization: pre-alert,

alert/pre-deployment, deployment, post-deployment, and reconstitution (reintegration).

In FY09, the Army National Guard continued to aggressively

implement the Yellow Ribbon Program, having funded more than

1,000 events at a cost of over $40 million which supported more

than 67,000 Soldiers and 83,000 family members. An interim

implementing instruction was distributed to the states to assist with

requests for funding that was provided in the FY09 Global War

on Terrorism Supplemental for reintegration events and activities.

Since FY07, the Army National Guard has provided over $50

million to various states. The ARNG established full-time contract

personnel within the headquarters of each state to assist in the

management and implementation of their Yellow Ribbon

Reintegration Programs.

For additional details about the Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program, please see the

accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Employer Support

Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) is a

Department of Defense organization established in 1972. Its mission is to gain and maintain employer support for Guard and

Reserve service by recognizing outstanding support, increasing

awareness of the law, and resolving conflict through mediation.

Across the nation, 56 field committees with approximately 4,500

volunteers provide information and help to foster employer support. The ESGR volunteers also reach out to the ARNG and other

Reserve Component members to ensure they understand their

rights under the law. For military members who experience difficulty with their employers, ESGR provides ombudsman services.

Ombudsmen provide information, counseling, and mediation support for issues related to the Uniformed Services Employment and

Reemployment Rights Act.

Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve continued to conduct

a major outreach campaign entitled, “We All Serve.” New in

FY09, was a unique opportunity for Army National Guard members to create strategic partnerships with their employers by participating in the “Alternate BossLift Program.” Alternate BossLifts are

entertainment events coupled with ESGR briefings that help

employers better understand the military culture. Soldiers can take

their employers to events such as a NASCAR race, or a production of the U.S. Army Soldier Show, to provide an environment that

facilitates better relationships between employer and employee,

which is important when it comes time to depart for a mobilization.

For additional details about Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve, please see

the accompanying CD, or, if viewing online, click here.

Survivor Services

Through a cooperative effort with parent services, veteran service organizations, Casualty and Mortuary Affairs Operations

Centers, Casualty Assistance Centers (CACs), and communities,

the Army National Guard provides ongoing support to Soldiers

and families through military funeral honors, casualty assistance,

and survivor outreach services.

The ARNG provides professional military funeral honors, in accordance with service tradition, to all eligible veterans and fallen warriors. The Guard supports 79% of military funeral honors for the

Army and 51% of funeral honors for all services combined. In

FY09, the Military Funeral Honor Program provided or supported

funeral honors for more than 11,200 veterans and Soldiers.

The Office of the Chief Surgeon team led from the front in FY09

in promoting the medical readiness of the Army National Guard

as an operational force by working toward its three primary

goals: supporting deployment of a healthy force-Soldiers; supporting deployment of the medical force-units; and facilitating

warriors in transition and family care-beneficiaries.

Medical and Dental Readiness

In FY09, the ARNG Office of the Chief Surgeon received funding

for the following programs: medical readiness, $126.5 million;

overseas contingency operations, $9.5 million; and dental treatment, $21.2 million. These funds went toward physical examinations, immunizations, contracts in support of medical readiness,

and deployment of 88,883 Soldiers who met physical, dental,

and mental health standards.

Readiness increased from 35% fully-ready in FY08 to 44% in

FY09. This success resulted from increased targeted funding and

a concerted effort by National Guard Bureau (NGB) staff to act

as liaisons between NGB and Army medical commands to meet

funding, manning, and equipment requirements. More than 100

NGB staff assistance visits to mobilization stations and state

readiness events also contributed to this increase in ARNG medical readiness.

Dental readiness at mobilization stations continued to increase to

over 90% in FY09. Funding of $21.2 million and NGB/state

coordination were instrumental in providing a drop in dental

releases from active duty and Soldiers who were dentally disqualified. The First Term Dental Readiness Program moved forward to

phase two with the goal of 95% in Dental Fitness Category 1 or

2 for Soldiers completing advanced individual training.

Demobilization dental reset has been initiated by U.S. Army

Dental Command with a goal of 95% in Dental Fitness Category

1 or 2 upon release from active duty.

The Army Selected Reserve Dental Readiness System was

approved, enabling dental treatment of Soldiers throughout Army

Force Generation. Program objective memorandum (POM)

efforts to fund this initiative were successful for FY10 through

FY15, achieving $1.1 billion in critical requirements across the

POM years.

Outreach Operation

The medical staff of the Guam Army National Guard, along with

assistance from the Hawaii ARNG, completed a four-day medical

and dental civil action project in the Barangay Puray and Pintong

Bucawe communities of the Philippines, where they provided immediate, primary care and dental care to residents. The mobile team

included two doctors, two dentists, three nurses, a dental technician,

and 12 support personnel. Previous missions have taken the Guam

mobile medical team to Cambodia and Thailand.

Digitization of Health Records

Digitization of Army National Guard health treatment records

showed great strides in the effort to accurately index the ARNG’s

scanned records during FY09. Overall, 269,775 records were

indexed and 318,064 were scanned into the ARNG digital medical records repository.

Mental Health

The Director of Psychological Health Contract was awarded at a

cost of $7.3 million. This program was constructed to address concerns of Congress and the Department of Defense Task Force on

Mental Health. Mental health support services are proposed to

improve, develop, and maintain intervention and rehabilitation

programs for returning Soldiers who have developed post traumatic stress disorder, experienced traumatic brain injuries, and/or

other behavioral health problems associated with an individual’s

inability to reintegrate into civilian life. It will also improve access

and coordination for professional intervention services of mental

health providers and related support systems.

Case Management

The Case Manager Support Contract option was exercised at a

cost of $14.5 million. At the end of FY09, case managers in 31

states were using the medical non-deployable module to manage

their case loads. During the period of August 2008 to August

2009, 15,292 cases were put into the module; of these, 6,734

were closed by return to duty, fit for duty, or Medical Evaluation

Board or Physical Evaluation Board. This left a total of 8,557

cases open across the 50 case managers reporting data, an average of 171 cases per case manager. The actual number of cases

per case worker varies per state.

Occupational Health and Hygiene

The occupational health (OH) budget for FY09 was $4.4 million

and industrial hygiene (IH) base funding was $2.4 million. These

programs were instrumental for the procurement of OH and IH

services necessary to ensure the health of technicians and to

ensure that they work in safe and healthful workplaces, as mandated per Occupational Safety and Health Act, Department of

Defense Instruction (DoDI) 6055.1, DoDI 6055.5, Title 29 Code

of Federal Regulations Parts 1910 and 1960, Army Regulation

40-5, Army Regulation 385-10, and other applicable federal,

state, and local statutes.

Health Promotion

Base funding supported programs such as Decade of Health

(DOH), Hooah4Health (H4H), and monitoring blood pressure

from ARNG kiosks. These programs are essential to influence the

front-end of health care and to both identify and mitigate preventable health conditions prior to their impact on the medical readiness

of Army National Guard units. Training days lost due to dental

readiness problems at mobilization stations have decreased by

50% over 2 years and TRICARE dental plan enrollments have

grown by more than 2,700 new enrollees since mid-FY09. Since

2006, DOH has provided more than 580,000 educational items.

The new Army Selected Reserve Dental Readiness System will soon

be available to all ARNG Soldiers; marketing materials were also

distributed. An estimated 1.5 million blood pressures have been

taken at all of the ARNG blood pressure kiosks nationwide. The

DOH team provided outreach articles in GX and Foundations magazines and partnered with the Defense Commissary Agency,

ARNG Well-Being, On Guard online, and the ARNG Soldier and

Family Services Support Division to provide expert wellness advice.

By the middle of FY09, the Decade of Health website had hosted

over 1.1 million hits and more than 164,000 sessions. Meanwhile,

the H4H website has provided downloadable health and wellness

information to over 20 million users since its inception.

Periodic Health Assessment

With units regularly deploying and mobilizing, there is an

increased need to monitor and track Soldiers’ medical readiness,

with a special emphasis on preventive measures. In order to

improve individual medical readiness rates, the Army has implemented the Periodic Health Assessment (PHA) Program, which

requires an annual physical assessment that replaces the requirement for the five-year retention physical.

The PHA consists of two parts. Part one is a self-assessment, completed by the Soldier; part two is the provider assessment, which

is transferred to the Medical Protection System as the Soldier’s

updated physical profile (PULHES).

The periodic health assessment is considered current if it has been

less than 15 months since the last PHA (green for less than 12

months, amber for less than 15 months). PHA results consist of the

health assessment, height, weight, PULHES, and potential for

deployability within six months. These items are

entered into the Medical Operational Data

System Periodic Health Assessment Module.

Upon development of the PHA policy, the

ARNG created PHA sets to distribute to each of

the 54 states and territories. A single set consists

of 14 laptop computers and one printer (with all

required accessories) to be utilized to complete

periodic health assessments. Small states

received one set; medium states received two or

three sets; large states received up to four sets.

At the end of FY09, states were using these sets

for providers during the health assessment and

for Soldiers completing their self-assessments.

Additionally, the ARNG offers training to medical managers and healthcare providers to

ensure they are fully trained and knowledgeable about the periodic health assessment

process. The ARNG will continue to provide

training. This will include training at future conferences, site visits, and topical training in standard classes at the

Professional Education Center.

The five-year retention physical has served the military well in previous years; however, the overwhelming increase in deployments

and mobilizations requires closer tracking of a Soldier’s individual medical readiness to ensure he or she is available for deployment at any time. The PHA ensures that all Soldiers, including

members of the ARNG, regularly see a provider to evaluate their

deployability, as well as to address any preventive healthcare

measures. Soldiers are the Army’s most priceless asset. Their medical readiness is critical in ensuring units are prepared for deployment when called upon.

The Army National Guard will continue to improve the Periodic

Health Assessment Program, while facilitating states in any way

possible. The ARNG is committed to both the PHA Program and

remediating individual medical readiness across the National

Guard.

Medical Surveillance

Civil support team (CST) medical surveillance has been essential

to ensure the health of the 56 CSTs. Initial start-up costs of $2.1

million in FY08 were reduced to $250 thousand in FY09 to

enhance the AERO information technology system, being adopted to support the medical surveillance of CST members. AERO

includes: essential cholinesterase (chemical exposure) tests performed by specialized Army labs, physical exams provided

through military treatment facilities across the county, and industrial hygiene sampling of facilities housing these critical teams.

However, overseas contingency operations funding was pulled

from the Medical Program during FY09 before this system could

be further improved. Expedited attempts to fund this program in

FY10 began in October, 2009.

Equipment Requirements

Prior to September 11, 2001, the Army National Guard was

resourced at less than 100% of equipment requirements. The historic fill rate for equipment for the ARNG has been about 70%.

Fill rates declined to approximately 40% of equipment available

to the governors in FY06 due to cross-leveling equipment to support immediate deployment requirements and improved to about

49% in FY07.

At the end of FY09, the ARNG had 81% of its Modified Table of

Organization and Equipment critical dual-use items on-hand. 

Facility Requirements

The Army National Guard operated more than 56,000 facilities,

including 3,087 readiness centers (armories) in FY09.

Sustainment, restoration, and modernization funding was key to

the training, readiness, and mobilization of the ARNG. This program keeps Army National Guard facilities in good working

order, including preventive maintenance, emergency work

orders, and repairs and replacements to facility components. It

also funds projects required to extend the useful life of the facilities and minor construction as needed. This level of facilities operations funding covered “must fund” operations including salaries;

contracts; supplies and equipment leases; utilities; municipal services; facilities engineering services; fire and emergency services;

and program management.

Facilities operations funding enables the Army National Guard to

keep readiness centers in good working order, including preventive maintenance, emergency work orders, and repairs and

replacements to facility components. It also funds projects required

to extend the useful life of the facilities, perform minor construction

as needed, and complete energy savings improvements.

Aviation Facilities

Army National Guard aviation units operated from a total of 104

facilities, including 96 ARNG Aviation Support Facilities and

Operating Facilities, 4 Aviation Classification and Repair Activity

Depots, and 4 ARNG Aviation Training Sites. Eighty-two of these

facilities are located on civil airfields and 22 are located on federal or state military installations. In FY09 the Army National

Guard began or completed 11 aviation facility construction projects with construction costs totaling $276 million. The Future

Years Defense Plan 2010-2015 contains $385 million budgeted

for 18 aviation facility construction projects to support aviation

transformation, force modernization, new unit and equipment

fielding for unmanned aviation systems, and legacy facility projects to enable support facilities and training sites to meet ARNG

aviation training, maintenance, and mission requirements.

Environmental Program

The Army National Guard Environmental Program enjoyed successes with the Army Compatible Use Buffer Program, the

Operational Range Assessment Program, the Massachusetts

Military Reservation and Camp Navajo cleanup programs, and

environmental sustainability in FY09.

As of the end of FY09, the Operational Range Assessment

Program had evaluated 297 of 305 identified ARNG sites using

qualitative record reviews and site visits. Approximately 62 sites

will require a follow-on phase two quantitative investigation with

sampling, at an estimated cost of $36 million.

In FY09, cleanup and restoration programs continued to make

steady progress at Camp Edwards, Massachusetts, where five

major groundwater treatment projects have been completed. The

Army National Guard is nearing final stages of cleanup of a

major open burn in an open detonation area at Camp Navajo,

Arizona. This land will eventually become maneuver training

land, enhancing the Guard’s training and readiness.

The Army National Guard in FY09 established sustainability pilot

programs in Pennsylvania and California to develop strategic

plans with focused sustainability goals that center on the ARNG’s

core mission requirements. Both states are incorporating

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standards into

their building designs as part of their sustainability efforts.

Depot Maintenance

The Army National Guard Depot Maintenance Program coordinates with various Department of Defense depots such as Tankautomotive and Armaments Command, Communications

Electronics Command, Red River, USATA, and the Marine Corps

Logistics Base, Barstow, to maximize ARNG sustainment with the

best blend of equipment needs, product deliverability, and depot

efficiency for our dollars. This delivers equipment our Soldiers

need and our force needs to maintain readiness.

The four aviation classification repair activity depots (AVCRADs)–

being redesignated as theater aviation sustainment maintenance

groups–continued to provide sustainment-level maintenance in

support of the Army National Guard aviation aircraft fleet. The

AVCRADs are cost-effective organizations which save the Army

$300-$500 per aircraft flight hour. In addition, the AVCRADs are

increasing their National Maintenance Program capabilities that

will support the Army Working Capital Fund.

The core primary missions of the AVCRAD are to: back up field level

maintenance (aviation unit maintenance and aviation intermediate

maintenance); perform depot-level maintenance such as special

repair authority, one time repair, aircraft paint, OCM for ARNG aviation units; operate supply support activity using standard Army

retail supply systems; utilize Aviation Round-out Maintenance

Information Systems (ARMISS) and Unit Level Logistics Aviation as

the automation systems for maintenance and supply (unit level) management; and provide oversight management of class IX funds for

ARNG aviation units using the ARMISS pseudo accounting systems.

Reset Process

The Department of the Army provided the Army National Guard

with $138.5 million for home station field reset. This money was

used to fund repair parts and the personnel to repair the equipment

used in the overseas contingency operations during FY09. The

ARNG was able to reset seven brigade-sized elements as well as

many smaller units. The reset process provided additional training for

Guard Soldiers as they performed the repair of this equipment. As

in the previous years, the process of the Army National Guard performing its own field reset allows for the equipment to be returned to

the states’ control and repaired in the most expeditious manner.

Army Communities of Excellence

The Army Communities of Excellence (ACOE) performance is

measured via Army Performance Improvement Criteria (APIC).

The APIC approach provides a structure that defines the processes and procedures needed for organizations to achieve their

highest levels of performance. 

Based on a rigorous evaluative “downselect” process and a site

visit, each year a panel of well-qualified judges selects one Army

National Guard organization and one Army Reserve organization to participate in the Headquarters, Department of the Army

ACOE awards ceremony at the Pentagon. The ARNG’s FY09

winner was Ohio. Other winners included Georgia as runner-up

(Gold First Place), Texas as second runner-up (Gold Second

Place), and Wisconsin as third runner-up (Gold Third Place). A

total of 19 joint forces headquarters-states and 3 special category organizations (Camp Ripley, Minnesota; Camp Guernsey,

Wyoming; and the Professional Education Center) participated.

The second ARNG ACOE Best Practices Conference took place

in May 2009. The conference provided a forum for the Army

Community of Excellence advisors to showcase their exemplary

performance practices and to share their journeys toward performance excellence among Army National Guard organizations. The following organizations presented their best practices:

OHARNG, MNARNG, GAARNG, TXARNG, and WVARNG.

During FY09, the ARNG information technology (IT) resources

supported the implementation of network security projects, mobilization support, wide area network modernization and network

redundancy, emergency response projects, and continued support to each United States Property and Fiscal Office, Joint Forces

Headquarters (JFHQs), and Army National Guard Headquarters

primarily in the National Capital Region.

Supporting the Organization

In FY09, the Army National Guard information technology team

deployed the Department of Defense (DOD)-mandated HostBased Security System throughout the JFHQs to establish and

enforce desktop and server security standards. In support of

ongoing cyber-warfare initiatives, the Army National Guard

implemented a network simulator training program.

The program provides network operators and defenders a

dynamic simulated environment to conduct initial qualification,

mission qualification, and crew training for signal Soldiers. The

objective of this training is to enhance the capability of the ARNG

to collaborate in multi-service cyber defense exercises such as

Bulwark Defender.

The IT team also completed Phase I of the secure network expansion project providing SIPRNet access to more than 500 battalion and higher headquarters locations. In addition, the team continued modernization of the wide area network (GuardNet)

including rewiring of selected facilities throughout the states and

territories, replacing outdated network equipment to meet DOD

Internet protocol version 6 mandates, established a redundant

GuardNet connection for each continental U.S. JFHQ to eliminate a single point of failure, and significantly increased the

bandwidth through each of the gateways. Additionally, they purchased and distributed nearly 25,000 computers to assist JFHQs

in meeting Army’s CIO/G6 Microsoft Vista Operating Software

mandate and completed preliminary design activities for the relocation and integration of the National Guard Bureau (NGB) Joint

Staff secure and non-secure voice, video, and data requirements

to the ARNG Reserve Component campus.

The IT team enhanced the Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) for

operations and logistics through the addition of new operational

data marts. The data marts include G1 data, improved

Comptroller data, and real property data. These data marts provide mission sourcing and readiness reporting functions to support the ARNG operations organization and the creation of a

Global War on Terrorism equipment reset and a real property

enterprise-wide visibility and reporting capabilities (on equipment, for example) for ARNG logistics organizations. In addition

to the original EDW, the IT team created the ARNG Classified

Enterprise Data Warehouse (CEDW) which provides both transactional and reporting capabilities that support NGB-ARR readiness and mobilization. The ARNG CEDW maximizes the use of

existing Headquarters, Department of the Army (HQDA) web

applications and provides additional capabilities that automate

the labor-intensive manual data integration and reporting tasks.

Both the EDW and CEDW benefit the ARNG by providing easy

central access to critical information through a single source of

integrated, authoritative data. The EDW and CEDW provide a

consistent enterprise-wide view of ARNG information assets and

are easily accessible over the web through Guard Knowledge

Online (GKO) and Guard Knowledge Online Secure (GKO-S).

Decision makers use both systems daily to successfully accomplish diverse federal and state missions.

Finally, the Army National Guard information technology organization maintained an on-demand infrastructure service to support continuity of operations after a natural or manmade disaster.

The requirement was to re-establish GuardNet support and services to incident sites disconnected from the network. In the event

that telecommunications infrastructure is unavailable, the Army

National Guard’s Emergency Response Solution (ERT) is an ondemand service that extends infrastructure services, allowing

access to GuardNet regardless of local infrastructure availability.

Each ERT deployment will bring a virtual JFHQ node to the affected area for continuity of operations with the capability of deploying voice, video, Internet data, and push-to-talk services.

FY09 presented considerable budget execution challenges for the

Army National Guard. The fiscal year kicked off with an unfunded

shortfall of approximately $1 billion in National Guard Personnel,

Army (NGPA) and $300 million in Operations and Maintenance,

Army National Guard (OMNG) with no promissory notes on the

horizon to pay down this shortfall. In addition, the ARNG only

received a relatively small amount of overseas contingency operations (OCO) funding upfront in the bridge supplemental. The combination of these factors forced the Guard to be exceptionally innovative in cash flowing techniques to ensure all 54 states and territories had the required resources needed in order to meet mission

requirements and deploy Soldiers for the warfight.

To address these issues, and to explain the shortfalls in more detail,

the Army National Guard Comptroller coordinated with

Headquarters Department of the Army (HQDA) and the Office of

Secretary Defense (OSD) and made numerous visits to Capitol Hill

to meet one-on-one with congressional staffers. The end result was

that Congress appropriated additional funds above the OCO

request to fully fund the NGPA shortfall. Through inventive thinking

and initiatives, OMNG was covered with the exception of approximately $104 million needed primarily to fund the last military technician payroll. To address this statutory requirement, the

Comptroller initiated a reprogramming action that was approved

by Congress and the additional funding needed was received in

time to meet statutory obligations.

Overall, FY09 was an extraordinary success considering the many

difficulties resolved through comprehensive coordination with

HQDA, OSD, the Office of Management and Budget, and congressional staff. The Army National Guard budget supported and

met all statutory requirements, end-strength goals, and training

requirements for mobilizing units.

National Guard Personnel, Army

The National Guard Personnel, Army (NGPA) Appropriation provides funds for basic pay; incentive pay; basic allowances for

subsistence and housing; clothing, travel, and other pay and

allowances; permanent change of station; hospitalization;

schools; and death gratuities for members of the Army National

Guard. Retired pay accrual is also part of this appropriation, as

the government sets aside a portion of the budget to pay for

future retirements.

The FY09 budget totaled $8.54 billion, which included the

President’s Budget, Congressional additions and reductions,

counterdrug operations, civil military programs, and the overseas

contingency operations. The Army National Guard continued to

experience its presence within the Department of the Army (DA)

grow as the DA expanded the nation’s military operations.

Operations and Maintenance,

National Guard

The Operations and Maintenance, Army National Guard

(OMNG) Appropriation provides funds for operating and maintaining ARNG units in all of the 54 states and territories. Funding

supports two budget activities and seventeen sub-activity groups.

The programs funded in this appropriation are pay and benefits

for military technicians and Department of Army civilians; training

and operations support; air and ground operating tempo;

automation and information systems; base operations; education

programs; medical readiness; military funeral honors; various mission support expenses; and recruiting and advertising costs.

Army National Guard citizen-Soldiers continued to prove themselves not only to their fellow Americans but also to the nations

around the world. In FY09, ARNG Soldiers deployed across the

globe to Iraq, Afghanistan, Belgium, Bosnia, Djibouti, Egypt,

Germany, Kosovo, Kuwait, and the Philippines.

The FY09 budget provided training and operational support to

an authorized end-strength of 358,200 citizen-Soldiers. The

OMNG Appropriation total was $6.437 billion, which included

the President’s Budget requests, Congressional adjustments, veterans grants, counterdrug operations, the State Partnership for

Peace Program, and overseas contingency operations funds. As

the Army is able to rebalance operational demand with the available supply, the Army National Guard, as an operational

reserve, will provide a recurring capability of ready Soldiers and

units to meet operational commitments at home and abroad.

Military Construction, 

Army National Guard 

The Army National Guard received over $1.4 billion in military

construction funds for FY09. The Military Construction, Army

National Guard (MCNG) program received over $736 million

for 54 projects. In addition, Congress provided $147 million for

three emerging requirements projects. The base realignment and

closure (BRAC) program was given over $470 million to construct

14 projects and ARNG executed 100% of these BRAC projects.

As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, Congress

made available $50 million for six construction projects. Also, in

FY09, the ARNG received $25 million of FY08 funds to assist

Mississippi and Indiana with storm damage to their facilities.

Overseas Contingency Operations

The Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) Appropriation

provides pre-mobilization and post-redeployment funding to support units mobilizing and returning from overseas contingency

operations in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation

Enduring Freedom, and other overseas missions such as the

Balkans, Guantanamo, and others. Units sourced for an OCO

mission require increased training, operating tempo, and unit support in preparation for mobilization. Preparation during pre-mobilization increases units’ time in theater and reduces the post-mobilization training time requirement. This training strategy is a direct

result of the Secretary of Defense’s Reserve Component

Utilization Policy signed on January 17, 2007. The benefits of a

12-month mobilization time for Army National Guard units is

designed to allow Soldiers more time at home station, hence,

more time with families and employers.

In addition to pre-mobilization training requirements, the OCO

Supplemental provides funding for post-redeployment and reintegration activities. These programs include unit-specific activities

such as reset (maintenance and recovery of National Guard

equipment), post-deployment health reassessment, and the Yellow

Ribbon Program (family support and Soldier reintegration).

The combination of the pre-mobilization training/support and the

post-redeployment/reintegration activities shows commitment to

highly-trained Army National Guard Soldiers in support of global operations, as well as a commitment to the wellbeing of individual Soldiers and their supportive families.

General Fund Enterprise 

Business System

General Fund Enterprise Business System (GFEBS) is a web-based

enterprise resource planning solution that will enable the three

Army components to compile and share accurate up-to-date

resource management data across the service. The system will

streamline the Guard’s financial management portfolio, facilitating

the replacement of overlapping and redundant systems. When fully

implemented, the Army National Guard will be 20% of the 79,000

end-user base. GFEBS performs most general fund resource management functions, including general ledger accounts receivable;

accounts payable; fund management; cost management; reporting;

and plant, property and equipment. Pay and allowance funding

will remain in the legacy system until further notice.

During FY09, ARNG subject matter experts continued to work

with GFEBS Headquarters documenting business processes,

developing the training strategy, and addressing interfaces with

the Automated Funds Control Orders System and the Planning

Resource for Infrastructure Development and Evaluation (PRIDE)

system, two of the 44 Army National Guard systems affected by

GFEBS transformation. PRIDE will be maintained to manage real

property assets since GFEBS does not currently have the functionality to maintain state assets.

Kentucky and a portion of the National Guard Bureau (NGB)

will transform to GFEBS on April 1, 2010; followed by Idaho and

Oklahoma on October 1, 2010; Mississippi in January 2011;

and the remainder of NGB and Indiana in April 2010. Full transformation is scheduled for July 2011 for the remaining 49 states

and territories.

Integrated Personnel 

and Pay System

In September 2009, an acquisition decision memorandum directed the Business Transformation Agency to begin transition of the

Defense Integrated Military Human Resources System (DIMHRS)

to the services for service-level implementations. This new system,

Integrated Personnel and Pay System (IPPS), will allow the Army

to design the system specifically for Soldiers and meet the Army’s

unique requirements.

Functional and technical assessments of IPPS are being conducted and the Army Acquisition Strategy will be developed. Army

leadership remains committed to ensuring that the IPPS solution is

functional and fully operational prior to implementation.

The National Guard Bureau contracted and fielded a DIMHRS

surge workforce that staffed management analysts throughout the

54 states and territories to assist with cleansing and maintaining

Soldier data; this contract ended in September 2009. The Army

National Guard Financial Services Center and United States

Property Fiscal Office representatives continue to ensure that

Soldiers’ records will be ready to be transferred when the new

IPPS is built.

2009 Department of the Army Goals

The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army, Financial

Management and Comptroller has the lead responsibility for

managing and overseeing the Joint Reconciliation Program (JRP)

for the Department of the Army (DA) goals. As an Army National

Guard business process, joint reviews are held quarterly between

the state/program managers and the accounting staff to track

progress in meeting the DA goals. The overall objective of the

ARNG JRP is to encourage and promote the sharing and

exchange of financial information, thereby contributing significantly to the effective and efficient financial planning and operation of the Army National Guard.

In FY09, the Army National Guard met a majority of the

Department of the Army goals by continuing to utilize best practices and lessons learned by introducing innovative products and

services to the states/program managers to enable them to work

more effectively and efficiently. The ARNG Comptroller worked

diligently to provide support and financial advice to state/program managers at the national level and to help foster a combined team effort in accomplishing the goals.

The FY09 Joint Reconciliation Program goals focused on the following areas: problem disbursements, unliquidated obligations,

accounts receivable, travel advances, interest penalties, Wide

Area Work Flow, Antideficiency Act cases, and the Defense

Travel System.

The Department of the Army focused on correcting five problem

disbursements by September 30, 2009. Reduce total negative

unliquidated obligations (NULOs) to be equal to or less than the

September 30, 2008 balance. Reduce total NULOs over 120

days old to zero. Reduce total unmatched disbursements (UMDs)

to be equal or less than the September 30, 2008 balance.

Reduce total UMDs over 120 days old to zero. Reduce intransits

over 30 days old to zero.

By August 31, 2009 the DA anticipated reducing unliquidated

obligations (ULOs) whereby goal performance would be measured based on straight-line reduction. Reduce to zero ULOs in the

canceling accounts. Reduce ULOs in the fourth expired year

accounts by 50% of the September 30, 2008 balance.

The Department of the Army sought to make three improvements

to accounts receivable by September 30, 2009. Reduce total

delinquent intra-governmental receivables outside the Department

of Defense (DOD) over 30 days old to 9% or less of the total intragovernmental receivables outside DOD. Reduce total delinquent

intra-governmental receivables within DOD over 30 days old to

5.5% or less of the total intra-governmental receivables within

DOD. Reduce delinquent public receivable amounts greater than

180 days to 9% or less as a portion of the total debt from the public (this does not include debt transferred to the Treasury).

As of September 30, 2009, the DA expected to reduce travel

advances in expired years to zero, reduce interest penalty payments paid per million dollars disbursed to $70, and increase

Wide Area Work Flow usage to 75% of all receiving reports submitted for payment.

The Department of the Army wanted an overall reduction in

Antideficiency Act (ADA) cases by September 30, 2009 (using

September 30, 2008 ADA case inventory as the baseline).

Reduce inventory of formal ADA cases by 100% and reduce

inventory of potential ADA cases by 80%.

Finally, the DA wanted to increase the use of the Defense Travel

System at proliferated field sites to 96% by September 30, 2009.

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.A. Basis of Presentation. These financial statements have been prepared to report the financial position and results of operations of the

Army National Guard (ARNG) to include the 50 states and the territories of Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the District of

Columbia, as required by the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, expanded by the Government Management Reform Act of 1994, and other

appropriate legislation. The financial statements have been prepared from the books and records of the Army National Guard in accordance with

the Department of Defense, Financial Management Regulation, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-136, Financial Reporting

Requirements, and to the extent possible, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The accompanying financial statements account for

all resources for which the Army General Fund is responsible, unless otherwise noted. Information relative to classified assets, programs, and operations is excluded from the statements or otherwise aggregated and reported in such a manner that it is not discernable.

The Army National Guard is unable to fully implement all elements of GAAP and the OMB Circular A-136, due to limitations of its financial and

nonfinancial management processes and systems that feed into the financial statements. The Army National Guard derives its reported values and

information for major asset and liability categories largely from nonfinancial systems, such as inventory systems and logistic systems. These systems were designed to support reporting requirements for maintaining accountability over assets and reporting the status of federal appropriations

rather than preparing financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The Army National Guard continues to implement process and system

improvements addressing these limitations. 

According to the Department of Army, there are currently 13 auditor-identified financial statement material weaknesses: financial management

systems; accounting adjustments; intragovernmental eliminations; abnormal account balances; accounts receivable; inventory and related property; property, plant, and equipment; accounts payable; environmental liabilities; statement of net cost; statement of budgetary resources; reconciliation of net cost of operations to budget; and fund balance with treasury.

Fiscal year (FY) 2009 represents the twelfth year that the ARNG has prepared and published its annual financial statements.

1.B. Mission of the Reporting Entity. Through the National Defense Act of 1933, the Army National Guard was created as a new component to the United States Army. The ARNG’s primary federal mission is to maintain properly-trained and equipped units available for mobilization

for national, state, or local emergencies, as well as to provide help to the states for disaster relief and public peacekeeping. On September 27,

2001, President Bush authorized the use of the National Guard in a Title 32 status (federally-funded, but state controlled) to increase security at

airports; by mid-December, 2001 more than 50,000 Guard members nationwide were mobilized in either a federal or state status in order to

secure airports and other vital facilities, or to support Operation Noble Eagle (homeland defense) and Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan).

While the airport security mission ended in June 2002, the Army Guard continues to support the states and the nation in large numbers as security forces protecting vital infrastructure in the U.S. and abroad.

The accounts used to prepare the statements are classified as either entity or non-entity. Entity accounts consist of resources that the ARNG has the

authority to use, or where management is legally obligated to use funds to meet entity obligations. Non-entity accounts are assets held by the Guard

but not available for use in its operations.

The non-entity accounts are special fund accounts for receipts of the government that are earmarked for a specific purpose. The Guard also receives

indirect benefits from other defense appropriations, and collects and deposits funds to Treasury accounts.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements account for all resources for which the agency is responsible. The financial statements are presented on a modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this theory, expense is recorded when goods or services are received and income is earned

when services are performed. For FY09, the ARNG financial accounting systems are unable to meet all the requirements for full-accrual accounting. Efforts are underway to bring the ARNG system into compliance with the Joint Financial Management Improvement Program.

1.C. Appropriations and Funds. The Army General Fund receives its appropriations and funds as general, trust, special, and deposit funds.

The Army General Fund uses appropriations and funds to execute its missions and subsequently report on resource usage.

General funds are used for financial transactions funded by congressional appropriations, including personnel, operation and maintenance,

research and development, procurement, and military construction accounts.

Trust funds contain receipts and expenditures of funds held in trust by the government for use in carrying out specific purposes or programs in

accordance with the terms of the donor, trust agreement, or statute. Certain trust and special funds may be designated as earmarked funds.

Earmarked funds are financed by specifically-identified revenues, required by statute to be used for designated activities, benefits, or purposes, and

remain available over time. Earmarked funds also have a requirement to account for and report on the receipt, use, and retention of revenues

and other financing sources that distinguish them from general revenues.

Special fund accounts are used to record government receipts reserved for a specific purpose.

Deposit funds are used to record amounts held temporarily until paid to the appropriate government or public entity. The Army General Fund is

acting as an agent or a custodian for funds awaiting distribution.

1.D. Basis of Accounting. For FY09, the Army National Guard’s financial management systems are unable to meet all of the requirements for

full accrual accounting. Many of the Army National Guard’s financial and nonfinancial feeder systems and processes were designed and implemented prior to the issuance of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for federal agencies. These systems were not designed to collect

and record financial information on the full accrual accounting basis as required by GAAP. Most of the Army National Guard’s financial and nonfinancial legacy systems were designed to record information on a budgetary basis.

The Department of Defense has undertaken efforts to determine the actions required to bring its financial and nonfinancial feeder systems and

processes into compliance with generally accepted accounting principles. One such action is the current revision of its accounting systems to record

transactions based on the United States Standard General Ledger. Until all of the Army General Fund’s financial and nonfinancial feeder systems

and processes are updated to collect and report financial information as required by GAAP, the Army National Guard’s financial data will be

derived from budgetary transactions (obligations, disbursements, and collections), transactions from nonfinancial feeder systems, and accruals

made of major items such as payroll expenses, accounts payable, and environmental liabilities. 

1.E. Revenues and Other Financing Sources. The Army National Guard receives congressional appropriations as financing sources for general funds on either an annual or multi-year basis. When authorized by legislation, these appropriations are supplemented by revenues generated by sales of goods or services. The ARNG recognizes revenue as a result of costs incurred for goods or services provided to other federal agencies and the public. Revenue is recognized when earned under the reimbursable order process.

1.F. Recognition of Expenses. For financial reporting purposes, the Department of Defense policy requires the recognition of operating expenses in the period incurred. However, because ARNG’s financial and nonfinancial feeder systems were not designed to collect and record financial

information on the full-accrual accounting basis, accruals are made for major items such as payroll expenses, accounts payable, environmental

liabilities, and unbilled revenue. Expenditures for capital and other long-term assets are not recognized as expenses until consumed in ARNG’s

operations. Unexpended appropriations are reflected in the net position. 

Certain expenses, such as annual and military leave earned but not taken, are not funded when accrued. Such expenses are financed in the period in which payment is made.

Operating materials and supplies (OM&S) consist of tangible personal property consumed in normal operations, and they are generally recognized as expenses when the items are purchased. Efforts are underway to transition towards the consumption method for recognizing OM&S

expenses.

1.G. Accounting for Intragovernmental Activities. Preparation of reliable financial statements requires the elimination of transactions occurring among entities within the Department of Defense (DOD) or between two or more federal agencies. However, the Army National Guard cannot accurately eliminate intragovernmental transactions by customer because the Army National Guard systems do not track buyer and seller data

at the transaction level. Generally, seller entities within the DOD provide summary seller-side balances for revenue, accounts receivable, and

unearned revenue to the buyer-side internal DOD accounting offices. In most cases, the buyer-side records are adjusted to agree with DOD seller-side balances. Intra-DOD balances are then eliminated. The volume of intragovernmental transactions is so large that after-the-fact reconciliation cannot be accomplished effectively with existing or foreseeable resources. The DOD is developing long-term system improvements to ensure

accurate intragovernmental information, to include sufficient up-front edits and controls to eliminate the need for after-the-fact reconciliations.

The U.S. Treasury Financial Management Service is responsible for eliminating transactions between the Department of Defense and other federal

agencies. The Treasury Financial Manual, Part 2 – Chapter 4700, “Agency Reporting Requirements for the Financial Report of the United States

Government,” and the U.S. Treasury’s “Federal Intragovernmental Transactions Accounting Policy Guide” provide guidance for reporting and reconciling intragovernmental balances. While the DOD is unable to fully reconcile intragovernmental transactions with all federal partners, the Army

National Guard is able to reconcile balances pertaining to investments in federal securities, Federal Employees’ Compensation Act transactions with

the Department of Labor, and benefit program transactions with the Office of Personnel Management.

The Department of Defense’s proportionate share of public debt and related expenses of the federal government is not included. The federal government does not apportion debt and its related costs to federal agencies. The DOD’s financial statements, therefore, do not report any portion

of the public debt or interest thereon, nor do the statements report the source of public financing whether from issuance of debt or tax revenues.

Financing for the construction of Department of Defense facilities is obtained through appropriations. To the extent this financing ultimately may

have been obtained through the issuance of public debt, interest costs have not been capitalized since the U.S. Treasury does not allocate such

interest costs to the benefiting agencies.

1.H. Transactions with Foreign Governments and International Organizations. N/A

1.I. Funds with the U.S. Treasury. The Army National Guard’s monetary resources are maintained in U.S. Treasury accounts. Collections,

disbursements, and adjustments are processed worldwide at the Defense and Accounting Service (DFAS). The disbursing station prepares monthly

reports, which provide information to the U.S. Treasury on check issues, interagency transfers, and deposits. In addition, the DFAS centers submit

reports to Treasury, by appropriation, on collections received and disbursements issued. Treasury then records this information to the appropriation fund balance with treasury (FBWT) account maintained in the Treasury’s system. ARNG’s recorded balance in the FBWT accounts and U.S.

Treasury’s FBWT accounts must reconcile monthly. 

1.J. Foreign Currency. N/A

1.K. Accounts Receivable. As presented in the Balance Sheet statement, accounts receivable includes three categories: accounts, claims, and

refunds receivable from other federal entities or from the public. Allowances for uncollectible accounts due from the public are based on the estimate of uncollectible accounts receivable from the public on a percentage of aged receivables by category. The allowance is calculated by using

50% of aged receivables in the 180-day to 2-year category and 100% of aged receivables in the greater than 2-year category. The Department of

Defense does not recognize an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts from other federal agencies. Claims against other federal agencies

are to be resolved between the agencies in accordance with dispute-resolution procedures defined in the Intragovernmental Business Rules published in the Treasury Financial Manual. 

1.L. Direct Loans and Loan Guarantees. N/A

1.M. Inventories and Related Property. The Army National Guard manages only military or government-specific materiel under normal conditions. Materiel is a unique term that relates to military force management, and includes all items (including ships, tanks, self-propelled weapons,

aircraft, etc., and related spares, repair parts, and support equipment, but excluding real property, installations, and utilities) necessary to equip,

operate, maintain, and support military activities without distinction as to its application for administrative or combat purposes. Items commonly

used in and available from the commercial sector are not managed in the Army National Guard Fund materiel management activities. Operational

cycles are irregular and the military risks associated with stock-out positions have no commercial parallel. ARNG holds materiel based on military

need and support for contingencies. The Department of Defense does not attempt to account separately for “inventory held for sale” and “inventory held in reserve for future sale” based on statements of federal financial accounting standards No. 3 definitions, unless otherwise noted.

Related property includes operating materials and supplies (OM&S). The OM&S, including munitions not held for sale, are valued at standard purchase price. The Army National Guard uses both the consumption method and the purchase method of accounting for OM&S. Items that are

centrally managed and stored, such as ammunition and engines, are generally recorded using the consumption method and are reported on the

Balance Sheet as OM&S. When current systems cannot fully support the consumption method, the Army General Fund uses the purchase method.

Under this method, materials and supplies are expensed when purchased. During FY09, ARNG expensed significant amounts using the purchase

method because the systems could not support the consumption method or management deemed that the item was in the hands of the end user.

This is a material weakness for the Department of Defense and long-term system corrections are in process. Once the proper systems are in place,

these items will be accounted for under the consumption method of accounting.

The Army National Guard determined that the recurring high dollar value of operating materials and supplies in need of repair is material to the

financial statements and requires a separate reporting category. Many high dollar items, such as aircraft engines, are categorized as OM&S rather

than military equipment.

The Army National Guard recognizes condemned materiel as “excess, obsolete, and unserviceable.” The cost of disposal is greater than the potential scrap value; therefore, the net value of condemned materiel is zero. Potentially redistributed materiel, presented in previous years as “excess,

obsolete, and unserviceable,” is included in the “held for use” or “held for repair” categories according to its condition.

1.N. Investments in U.S. Treasury Securities. N/A

1.O. General Property, Plant, and Equipment. The Army National Guard uses the estimated historical cost for valuing military equipment.

The Department of Defense (DOD) identified the universe of military equipment by accumulating information relating to program funding and associated military equipment, equipment useful life, program acquisitions, and disposals to establish a baseline. The military equipment baseline is

updated using expenditure, acquisition, and disposals information.

The DOD’s General Property, Plant and Equipment (General PP&E) capitalization threshold is $100 thousand, except for real property which is $20

thousand. The Army National Guard has implemented the threshold for real property, and is fully compliant.

General PP&E assets are capitalized at historical acquisition cost when an asset has a useful life of two or more years, and when the acquisition

cost equals or exceeds the DOD capitalization threshold. The DOD also requires the capitalization of improvements to existing General PP&E assets

if the improvements equal or exceed DOD capitalization threshold and extend the useful life or increase the size, efficiency, or capacity of the asset.

The DOD depreciates all General PP&E, other than land, on a straight-line basis.

1.P. Advances and Prepayments. When advances are permitted by law, legislative action, or presidential authorization, the Department of

Defense policy is to record advances and prepayments in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As such, payments made in

advance of the receipt of goods and services should be reported as an asset on the Balance Sheet. The DOD’s policy is to expense and/or properly classify assets when the related goods and services are received. The Army National Guard has not implemented this policy primarily due to

system limitations.

1.Q. Leases. Lease payments for the rental of operating facilities are classified as either capital or operating leases. When a lease is essentially

equivalent to an installment purchase of property (a capital lease), Army General Fund records the applicable asset and liability if the value equals

or exceeds the current capitalization threshold. The Army National Guard records the amounts as the lesser of the present value of the rental and

other lease payments during the lease term (excluding portions representing executory costs paid to the lessor) or the asset’s fair market value. The

discount rate for the present value calculation is either the lessor’s implicit interest rate or the government’s incremental borrowing rate at the inception of the lease. The Army General Fund, as the lessee, receives the use and possession of leased property, for example real estate or equipment,

from a lessor in exchange for a payment of funds. An operating lease does not substantially transfer all the benefits and risk of ownership. Payments

for operating leases are charged to expense over the lease term as it becomes payable.

Office space and leases entered into by Army National Guard in support of contingency operations are the largest component of operating leases. These costs were gathered from existing leases, General Services Administration bills, and Interservice Support Agreements. 

1.R. Other Assets. Other assets include those assets, such as military and civil service employee pay advances, travel advances, and certain

contract financing payments that are not reported elsewhere on Army National Guard’s Balance Sheet.

The Army National Guard conducts business with commercial contractors under two primary types of contracts: fixed-price and cost-reimbursable.

To alleviate the potential financial burden on the contractor that long-term contracts can cause, Army General Fund may provide financing payments. Contract financing payments are defined in the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Part 32, as authorized disbursements of monies to a contractor prior to acceptance of supplies or services by the government. Contract financing payments clauses are incorporated in the contract terms

and conditions and may include advance payments, performance-based payments, commercial advance and interim payments, progress payments

based on cost, and interim payments under certain cost-reimbursement contracts. 

Contract financing payments do not include invoice payments, payments for partial deliveries, lease and rental payments, or progress payments

based on a percentage or stage of completion, which the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement authorizes only for construction of

real property, shipbuilding, and ship conversion, alteration, or repair. Progress payments for real property and ships are reported as “construction

in progress.” It is Department of Defense policy to record certain contract financing payments as “other assets.”

1.S. Contingencies and Other Liabilities. The statements of federal financial accounting standards (SFFAS) No. 5, “Accounting for Liabilities

of the Federal Government,” as amended by SFFAS No. 12, “Recognition of Contingent Liabilities Arising from Litigation,” defines a contingency

as an existing condition, situation, or set of circumstances that involves an uncertainty as to possible gain or loss. The uncertainty will be resolved

when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Army General Fund recognizes contingent liabilities when past events or exchange transactions occur, a future loss is probable, and the loss amount can be reasonably estimated.

Financial statement reporting is limited to disclosure when conditions for liability recognition do not exist but there is at least a reasonable possibility of incurring a loss or additional losses. Examples of loss contingencies include the collectability of receivables, pending, or threatened litigation, and possible claims and assessments. The Army General Fund’s risk of loss and resultant contingent liabilities arise from pending or threatened litigation or claims and assessments due to events such as aircraft, ship, and vehicle accidents; medical malpractice; property or environmental damages; and contract disputes.

Other liabilities arise as a result of anticipated disposal costs for Army General Fund’s assets. This type of liability has two components: nonenvironmental and environmental. Consistent with SFFAS No. 6, “Accounting for Property, Plant, and Equipment,” recognition of an anticipated environmental disposal liability begins when the asset is placed into service. Nonenvironmental disposal liabilities are recognized for assets when management decides to dispose of an asset based upon the Department of Defense’s (DOD) policy, which is consistent with SFFAS No. 5 “Accounting

for Liabilities of Federal Government.” The DOD recognizes nonenvironmental disposal liabilities for military equipment nuclear-powered assets

when placed into service. Such amounts are developed in conjunction with, and not easily identifiable from, environmental disposal costs. 

1.T. Accrued Leave. The Army National Guard reports as liabilities military leave and civilian earned leave, except sick leave, that has been

accrued and not used as of the Balance Sheet date. Sick leave is expensed as taken. The liability reported at the end of the accounting period

reflects the current pay rates.

1.U. Net Position. Net Position consists of unexpended appropriations and cumulative results of operations.

Unexpended appropriations represent the amounts of authority that are unobligated and have not been rescinded or withdrawn. Unexpended

appropriations also represent amounts obligated for which legal liabilities for payments have not been incurred.

Cumulative results of operations represent the net difference, since inception of an activity, between expenses and losses and financing sources

(including appropriations, revenue, and gains). Beginning with FY98, the cumulative results also include donations and transfers in and out of

assets that were not reimbursed.

1.W. Comparative Data. N/A

1.X. Unexpended Obligations. The Army General Fund obligates funds to provide goods and services for outstanding orders not yet delivered. Unless the title has passed, the financial statements do not reflect a liability for payment for goods and services not yet delivered.

Unexpended obligations include both obligations for which goods and services have been delivered (title passed) and a liability recognized, and

obligations for which no delivery has occurred and no liability recognized. The balance of unexpended obligations appears immediately before

net outlays in the Statement of Budgetary Resources, and is referred to as “total, unpaid obligated balances, net, end of period.”

1.Y. Undistributed Disbursements and Collections. Undistributed disbursements and collections represent the difference between disbursements and collections matched at the transaction level to a specific obligation, payable, or receivable in the activity field records as opposed to

those reported by the U.S. Treasury. These amounts should agree with the undistributed amounts reported on the monthly accounting reports. Intransit payments are those payments that have been made, but have not been recorded in the fund holder’s accounting records. These payments

are applied to the entities’ outstanding accounts payable balance. In-transit collections are those collections from other agencies or entities that

have not been recorded in the accounting records. These collections are also applied to the entities’ accounts receivable balance. 

The Department of Defense policy is to allocate supported undistributed disbursements and collections between federal and nonfederal categories

based on the percentage of distributed federal and nonfederal accounts payable and accounts receivable. Unsupported undistributed disbursements are recorded in accounts payable. Unsupported undistributed collections are recorded in other liabilities. 

1.Z. Significant Events. No significant events noted.

Equipping Overview

Fiscal year 2009 (FY09) proved to be an outstanding year for

the Army National Guard in terms of both the quantity of equipment received and the modernization level of that equipment. In

all, the Army distributed more than 440 thousand new items to

ARNG units valued at $5.9 billion. Additionally, Headquarters,

Department of the Army made significant improvements to its

equipment procurement and distribution processes, resulting in

component-level transparency for 30 major weapon systems. For

these items, the Army National Guard’s Materiel Programs

Division can now track resources from receipt of funds, through

the contracting process, to fielding of this equipment to ARNG

units, and can verify equipment received against that which was

due in. In FY10, the Army will begin to track all equipping

resources at the component level which will further improve transparency. During FY09, the Army G8 also released a new Army

equipping strategy that establishes a goal of 80% equipment-onhand for critical dual use (CDU) items for all ARNG units, regardless of their position in the Army Force Generation cycle.

At the end of FY09, the Army National Guard had 77% of its modified table of organization and equipment (MTOE) requirements

and 83% of its CDU equipment-on-hand. However, only about

62% of its MTOE and 67% of its CDU equipment was available for

use by the 54 states and territories. This was because approximately 15% of ARNG equipment is deployed at any given time and

unavailable for use by state governors. The Army estimates that the

Army National Guard’s overall MTOE equipment-on-hand percentage will fall from 77% to 74% in FY10 because requirements will

increase as a result of the ongoing conversion to a modular force.

Funding Overview

NOTE: Until completion of the Quadrennial Defense Review

2010, all force structure, projected on-hand quantities, and financial data beyond FY10 are subject to change.

- FY09-10 Funding Profile

The Army National Guard continues to receive and field thousands of pieces of equipment each year as the Army endeavors

to modernize and equip the force as an operational reserve. In

FY09, the Army allocated approximately $5.1 billion in base

funding for ARNG equipment. Highlights include $404 million for

high-mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWVs), $246

million for Stryker vehicles, $234 million for family of medium tactical vehicles (FMTVs), $177 million for high mobility artillery systems (HIMARS), and $92 million for the UH-72A light utility helicopter (LUH) program. Highlights of Soldier systems and communication equipment include $170 million for night vision goggles,

$127 million for thermal weapon sights, $104 million for javelin,

and $62 million for warfighter information network-tactical (WINT). While this is extremely good news, the ARNG tactical

wheeled vehicle and helicopter fleets will continue to require significant investment funding over the long-term.

Table 3 (see p. 64) highlights FY10 resources anticipated to

address Army National Guard equipment and modernization

shortfalls. Overall, the ARNG anticipates a total of $4.4 billion in

new procurement funding in the FY10 base, overseas contingency operations, and Grow the Army funding.

- Past National Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation and

Congressionally-Added Funding

FY07 National Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation

(NGREA) funding consisted of $75 million in the base budget

and $1 billion in the supplemental for a total of $1.075 billion.

The Army National Guard achieved a final closeout commitment

rate of 100% and a final closeout obligation rate in excess of

99.978% for those funds. The ARNG FY08 NGREA funding consisted of $645.6 million in the base budget, and $594.3 million

in the supplemental for a total of $1.24 billion. The Army

National Guard is currently executing these funds to procure

equipment referenced in the congressionally-approved buy list

represented in Table 4 (see p. 65) and Table 5 (see p. 66). The

combined commitment rate for both currently stands at 74.4%

and the combined obligation rate for both stands at 39.4%.

Army National Guard FY09 NGREA funding consisted of

$468.6 million in the base, and $300 million in the supplemental, for a total of $768.6 million. The ARNG is currently executing

these funds to procure equipment referenced in the congressionally-approved buy list represented in Table 6 (see p. 66). The

commitment rate is currently 50.1% for the base, and the obligation rate is 31.2%. Execution (commitment and obligation) of the

FY09 supplemental funding is in the beginning stages, as this

funding was approved in late November 2009.

Congressional earmark (added) funding for FY07 totaled

$188.7 million. These funds were 100% committed and 100%

obligated. The funding received for FY08 totaled $279.2 million.

These funds are currently being executed to purchase those items

listed in Table 7 (see p. 67).

Congressionally-added funding for FY09 totaled $90.7 million.

The funds are currently being executed to purchase those items

listed in Table 8 (see p. 68).

- Funding for New and Displaced Equipment Training

The Army National Guard new and displaced equipment training

(NET/DET) mission is to facilitate new equipment and displaced

equipment training in support of the modernization of the ARNG

by programming, budgeting, and executing National Guard

Personnel, Army (NGPA) funding on behalf of the 54 states and

territories. The funding provides pay and allowances for Army

National Guard Soldiers to enter active duty for NET/DET events

required for fielding of new or displaced equipment. The ARNG

received $40.6 million in NGPA in FY09 to conduct associated

NET/DET fieldings. NET/DET executed $40.4 million for a

99.7% execution rate. The ARNG has programmed $70.5 million in 2010 for NET/DET fielding events, ensuring availability of

NGPA for an anticipated increase in NET/DET events in FY10.

- Post-FY11 Equipment Funding Shortfalls

Notable shortfalls to procure and/or modernize essential critical

dual use (CDU) items-equipment that is critical to both warfighting

and domestic missions-still exist, despite the significant increase in

Army National Guard equipment received over the past several

years. The majority of the systems on the FY11 ARNG Top 25

Equipment Modernization Shortfall List fall into the CDU category. These items are essential for the transition of the Army

National Guard to an operational reserve. Current shortfalls

greatly impact communications, command and control, transportation (light and medium trucks), field logistics, and aviation

“essential 10 capabilities.” These capabilities must be available

for every homeland defense/homeland security/defense support

to civil authorities mission, regardless of a unit’s position in the

Army Force Generation cycle. 

Equipment-on-hand (EOH) percentages will not grow quickly,

even with the increased investment in Army National Guard

resources for several reasons. First, ARNG modified table of

organization and equipment (MTOE) requirements will continue

to increase through FY11 and beyond. Second, most new equipment will replace older, obsolete equipment and will not result in

a net equipment-on-hand increase. Examples of this include the

light and medium tactical vehicles replacing the M35 vehicles,

the AN/PVS-14 night vision goggles replacing the AN/PVS-5

night vision goggles, and the M4 rifles replacing M16 rifles.

Finally, some funding will be used to recapitalize items such as

tanks and helicopters rather than purchase new ones. While

replacement and upgrade of existing equipment will improve

modernization, it will not increase equipment-on-hand.

As an example, consider the ARNG’s UH-60 Blackhawk

Helicopter fleet. Although EOH levels reached a 100% fill level

(786 helicopters) in FY09, almost 300 of them are the older ‘A’

models built in the 1980s and early 1990s. Current investment

does little to replace these aircraft with modern ‘L’ or ‘M’ models;

the result is a $2.1 billion unfunded modernization shortfall for

this one system.

Equipping Status

Army Enterprise Equipping and Reuse Conferences are conducted on a semi-annual basis. The AEERC conducted in August

2009 (AEERC 11.0) resulted in a planned distribution of

201,577 pieces of equipment valued at $8.0 billion to the

ARNG between August 2009 and March 2011. The following

highlights demonstrate how the equipment distributions are

spread across several notable capability areas:

Trucks and Trailers (26% of total investment)

Trucks and trailers account for 14,480 items valued at $2.06 billion. Upon completion of the deliveries, the family of medium tactical vehicles will reach 40% fill of its MTOE requirement (not

including substitutions). The family of heavy tactical vehicles will

be fully fielded by FY11, and M872 trailers will reach 70% of

MTOE requirements by March 2011.

Aircraft (14% of total investment)

Aircraft accounts for 518 items valued at $1.1 billion. UH-60s were

fully fielded at the end of FY09, however most are ‘A’ models. The

ARNG had its full complement 786 UH/HH-60 helicopters at the

end of November 2009. Available funds will also procure 47 UH72A light utility helicopters, 14 tactical unmanned aerial vehicle systems (SHADOW), and 3 CH-47F Chinook helicopters through the

end of FY11.

Strike (12% of total investment)

Strike accounts for 2,448 items valued at $921 million. High

Mobility Artillery Rocket System and armored security vehicle

fielding will be completed by the end of FY13.

Soldier Systems and Weapons (8% of total investment)

Soldier systems and weapons account for 97,932 items valued at

$660 million. The ARNG will receive 51,000 PVS-14s; 18,290

thermal weapon sights; and 5,760 M240B machine guns based

on the AEERC 11.0 planned distribution.

Budget Operating System

Summaries

- Aviation Budget Operating System

The Aviation Budget Operating System consists of both manned

and unmanned aerial systems. It includes both fixed- and rotarywing assets, along with the aviation ground support equipment

required to service and maintain these systems. Utility cargo

rotary-wing assets include the UH-60 Blackhawk series of aircraft, the CH-47 Chinook, and the LUH-72 Lakota. Attack/reconnaissance rotary-wing assets include the AH-64 Apache and the

OH-58D Kiowa. The manned fixed-wing assets include the C-12

Huron, the C-23 Sherpa, the C-26 Metroliner, the UC-35 Citation

V, and the C-20 Gulfstream IV. Unmanned fixed-wing assets

include the RQ-11 Raven-B and the RQ-7 Shadow.

There is a current requirement for 1,463 fixed- and rotary-wing

airframes based upon FY11 authorizations. Of those, the Army

National Guard has 1,457 (99%) on hand (this is a mixed fleet

of new production aircraft, older cascaded aircraft, and retiring

legacy aircraft). For utility helicopters, the ARNG has all 786 currently required UH/HH-60 series Blackhawk helicopters.

Additionally, the Army leadership has approved an increase for

medical evacuation companies from 12 to 15 aircraft, which will

add another 63 HH/UH-60s to the total Army National Guard

Blackhawk requirement. The ARNG is also projected to field 88

of 210 (42%) required UH-72A Lakota Light Utility helicopters by

FY11. For cargo helicopters, the ARNG has 137 of 161 (85%)

required CH-47D Chinook helicopters. 

For attack/reconnaissance helicopters, the Army National Guard

is on track to complete the AH-64D Longbow Apache upgrade

for six of its eight attack helicopter battalions. The ARNG is pursuing authorization and funding to acquire an additional 18 AH64Ds to meet its training base requirement at the Western Army

Aviation Training Site. For armed scout helicopters, the ARNG

has 22 of 30 (73%) OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopters. The

Army National Guard’s current fixed-wing fleet is relatively stable

in spite of the most recent decision to transfer the C-27J to the U.S.

Air Force. This decision placed the modernization of the current

fixed-wing fleet at risk. The status of the C-23 Sherpa was in

staffing at the time of publication of this document.

The sourcing of unmanned aerial platforms is on track for FY11. The

Army historically fields the majority of new aircraft to the active

component and cascades older airframes to the Army National

Guard. The significant lack of modernization funding continues to

be an issue with two rotary and manned and unmanned fixed-wing

platforms in the ARNG. The rotary-wing funding shortfall impacts

the UH-60 A-A-L upgrade program and the AH-64D pure fleet conversion. The fixed-wing funding shortfall affects the sustainment of

the C-23 Sherpa, which is the only dedicated fixed-wing cargo aircraft in the Army inventory. The unmanned aerial system funding

shortfall impacts the fielding to the battlefield surveillance brigade

and fires brigades.

- Air Defense Budget Operating System

The Air Defense, Space, and Ground Base Missile Defense

Budget Operating System consists of systems that detect, track,

and destroy enemy air and missile attacks. The ARNG has current

authorizations for seven air defense artillery battalions. The

Forward Area Air Defense Command and Control (FAADC2) system will be 100% fielded in FY11 with all seven battalions receiving the system. Additionally in FY11, the upgrade of existing SENTINEL radars to the enhanced tactical radar correlator system will

be at 100% with all 48 systems fielded.

Army National Guard air defense artillery battalions are not

scheduled to receive new Surface-Launched Advanced Medium

Range Air-to-Air Missiles (SLAMRAAM) until FY19. The current

Stinger missile shelf life ends in FY15. The Division 9.0 Redesign

organization increases SENTINEL requirements by adding two

SENTINELS per division. The ARNG will internally transfer equipment and field additional systems, providing for 100% (48 of 48)

systems fielded. The requirement for the air/missile defense planning and control system for the Army National Guard is three systems. In FY11, two of three (66%) units will be fielded. Funding for

the third system has been diverted to higher Army priorities, and

represents a shortfall of $4 million. The ARNG will have 54 of 54

(100%) air defense airspace management systems fielded by

FY11. However, the authorization is expected to grow to 71 when

the new basis of issue plan becomes effective after FY11. This

shortfall is expected to be $66.3 million.

- Battle Command Budget Operating System

The Battle Command Budget Operating System contains multiple

systems and subsystems. The Army digital Command, Control,

Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (C4I) System

includes fixed/semi-fixed and mobile networks that are designed

for interoperability with U.S. and coalition C4I systems. Major

elements of the Army Battle Command System (ABCS) are the

Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T); Single

Channel Ground and Air Radio System (SINCGARS); Joint

Tactical Radio System (JTRS); Enhanced Multi-Band Inter/Intra

Team Radio (JEM); Tactical Battle Command (TBC); Force XXI

Battle Command Brigade and Below (FBCB2); Global Command

and Control System, Army (GCCS-A); Digital Topographic

Support System (DTSS); All Source Analysis System/ Distributed

Ground Station, Army (ASAS/DCGS-A); Tactical Airspace

Integrated System; Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System;

and the Air and Missile Defense Workstation. 

Based on FY11 authorizations, equipment-on-hand, and planned

deliveries, SINGARS, JEM, DTSS, and ASAS/DCGS-A are expected to be fully fielded. WIN-T will have 615 systems fielded out of

the 616 authorized (99%), with a funding shortfall valued at $57

million. TBC will have 1,791 systems out of the 1,914 authorized

(94%), with a funding shortfall valued at $14 million. Blue Force

Tracker will have 12,850 systems out of 21,207 authorized (61%)

with a shortfall valued at $258 million. GCCS-A will have 11 out

of 36 systems on hand (31%) with an equipment shortfall valued

at $3 million. Battle Command Sustainment and Support System

will have 1,459 systems out of 2,007 systems authorized (73%)

with an equipment shortfall value of $38 million. The Army

National Guard will have 29,386 Simple Key Loaders on hand

out of 89,046 systems authorized (33%), leaving a funding shortfall of $200 million. The ARNG is projected to have 60,908

Defense Advanced GPS Receivers on hand out of 74,972 systems

authorized (81%) with a funding shortfall of $42 million. 
The total post-FY11 battle command funding shortfall is estimated

at $614 million. A primary concern for the Battle Command

Budget Operating System is the incremental modernization of systems and the potential interoperability and operation capability

shortfalls that may occur. 

- Field Logistics and Logistics Automation Budget Operating System

The Field Logistics Budget Operating System consists of medical,

fuel, water, food, and power generation systems. The combined

post-FY11 shortage of field logistics systems is estimated at $1.7

billion. Fuel support systems such as the Forward Area Re-Fueling

System Advanced-Aviation and the Fuel Quality Systems are projected to be 100% fill by FY11. Emerging water storage and dispensing systems such as the 2,000 gallon tank (HIPPO) and the

900 gallon water storage pod (CAMEL) have a significant role

in both Army National Guard overseas contingency operations

and homeland domestic operations. The ARNG is authorized

762 HIPPO systems with 194 on hand and authorized 207

CAMEL systems with zero on hand. These two vital water storage

and disposition systems are only 20% filled primarily due to the

CAMEL’s fielding delays. The Army National Guard is 74% fill for

Field Feeding Systems such as containerized kitchens and food

sanitation centers. The ARNG is authorized 362 containerized

kitchens with 119 on hand, and authorized 1,091 food service

centers with 967 on hand. The Army’s decision to reduce funding

for these systems affects the ARNG field feeding equipment posture. The Army National Guard is increasing National Guard and

Reserve Equipment Appropriation funding towards these programs to mitigate potential long-term equipment shortages.

- Precision Strike Budget Operating System

The Precision Strike (Fire Support) Budget Operating System consists of all fire support and related systems. The overall level of

equipping and modernization for Army National Guard strike systems is adequate. All systems are fully funded under the present

plan with the exception of Lightweight Counter Mortar Radar

(LCMR) v3. The LCMR v3 has an unfunded requirement after the

10-15 program objective memoranda for a shortage of 77 systems.

The ARNG anticipates changes to the priority of distribution of

M1200 Armored Knights and Lightweight Laser Designator Range

Finders (LLDR). Across component (COMPO) 1 and COMPO 2,

priority is first to units deploying for a full-spectrum overseas contingency operations missions, and next to units going through reset.

There is a current requirement for 325 M119A2 Towed Howitzers

based upon FY11 authorizations. Of those, the ARNG is projected

to have 320 (98%) on hand in FY11. For the M777A2 Towed

Howitzer, the Army National Guard will have 144 of 149 (97%)

by the end of FY11. The ARNG is projected to receive 63 of 80

(79%) of the M1200 Armored Knight systems in FY11. For LLDR,

the Guard anticipates receipt of 426 of 1,096 (39%) required

LLDRs by FY11. All 94 (100%) Improved Position and Azimuth

Determining Systems have been fielded to the ARNG. For the

Profiler, the Army National Guard is projected to have received 36

of 36 systems for a 100% fill in FY11. Eight of 127 LCMRs have

been delivered to the ARNG for a 6% fill. The Guard is projected

to receive 166 of 216 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems for a

33% fill in FY11. The EQ-36 Radar is at “milestone C” decision

point and is scheduled to begin full rate production in FY13. The

PALADIN Integrated Management Program has not yet begun to

field to the ARNG. Low rate initial production is scheduled to begin

in 2010 with first unit equipped scheduled for FY12.

- Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Budget Operating System

The Intelligence and Electronic Warfare System (IEWS) Budget

Operating System (BOS) consists of a variety of Military

Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Systems. Noteworthy systems

in the IEW BOS are: TROJAN Special Purpose Intelligence

Remote Integrated Terminal (SPIRIT) AN/TSQ-226(V)3, Prophet

AN/MLQ-40(V)4, Counterintelligence/Human Intelligence

Automated Reporting and Collection System (CHARCS),

Distributed Common Ground System–Army (DCGS-A), and All

Source Analysis System-Light (ASAS-L). Based on FY11 authorizations, equipment-on-hand, and planned deliveries, Trojan SPIRIT

will have 45 systems fielded out of 51(88%), with a funding shortfall valued at $8.4 million. Prophet has enough funding to field all

69 systems. However, due to the lack of trained Soldiers, only 6

systems will be fielded out of 69 systems (9%), with an unfielded

value of $252 million. CHARCS will have 1,264 systems fielded

out of 1,280 (99%), with a shortfall valued at $576 thousand.

DCGS-A ACE will have all eight systems fielded (100%). DCGSA ASAS-L will have 1,175 systems fielded out of 1,431 (82%)

with a funding shortfall valued at $7.3 million. DCGS-A ACT-E

will have 28 systems out of 35 (80%), with a shortfall valued at

$18.2 million. 

The primary concern for the IEWS BOS is the shortfall of trained

Soldiers with a 35P/N/T military occupational specialty (MOS)

code. Without MOS qualified Soldiers in each unit, Prophet ES

Spiral System is not able to be fielded with a shortfall valued at

$18.2 million.DCGS-A is a program that is very volatile and very

expensive to maintain with the latest and most advanced software

available. By the time new software is released, newer software

has been developed. Headquarters, Department of the Army G8 is balancing requirements versus funding by fielding the most

advanced technology available to deploying units. 

- Maneuver Budget Operating System

The Maneuver Budget Operating System (BOS) consists of a variety of combat systems that include Abrams tanks; Bradley fighting

vehicles; M7 Bradley fire support team (BFIST) vehicles; Stryker

vehicles; improved, tube-launched, optically-tracked, wire-guided

missiles; Improved Target Acquisition System (ITAS), Javelin; and

Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3). The

projected status of Abrams tanks at the end of FY11 is 100% with

563 on-hand authorized and 100% of the FY11 approved modified table of organization and equipment (MTOE) and table of

distribution and allowances (TDA) authorizations. However, at

the end of FY11, only 232 of 493 MTOE-authorized Abrams will

have received upgrades to the more modern situational awareness (SA) variant. By the end of FY13, 203 more tanks will

receive the SA variant upgrade, and the remaining 58 will

receive the system enhancement package variant upgrade. The

projected status of Bradley fighting vehicles at the end of FY11 is

91% fill with 827 on hand out of 912 FY11 approved MTOE and

TDA authorizations. The post-FY11 equipping shortfall of Bradley

fighting vehicles is 85% with an equipment shortfall value of

$275.1 million. Additionally, the Bradley fleet has been undergoing modernization to the SA variant. However, due to budget

shortfalls, by the end of FY14, only one of the seven ARNG

heavy brigade combat teams (HBCT), the three combat aviation

brigades, and the ARS will have the older Operation Desert

Storm (ODS) variant. 

The projected status of M7 BFIST at the end of FY11 is 100% with

92 on hand out of 92 FY11 MTOE and TDA authorizations. Only

one HBCT in the Army National Guard will receive the SA

upgrade; all other BFIST vehicles will remain ODS variants. The

projected status of Stryker vehicles at the end of FY11 is 254 out

of 322 (79%). The post-FY11 equipping shortfall of Stryker vehicles is 68 with an equipment shortfall value of $329.6 million.

The projected status of ITAS, with an enhanced far target location

capability, at the end of FY11 is 284 of 664 (43%). End-of FY11

equipping shortfall of ITAS is 380 with an equipment shortfall

value of $276 million. The projected status of Javelin, in the Block

0 and Block 1 configurations, at the end of FY11 is 2,434 of

2,554 (95%). The post-FY11 Javelin shortfall is 120 with an

equipment shortfall value of $16.4 million. The projected status of

LRAS3 at the end of FY11 is 669 of 764 (88%). The post-FY11

LRAS3 equipping shortfall is 95 with an equipment shortfall value

of $48.8 million. Barring any decrements from the Quadrennial

Defense Review, the Maneuver BOS will not be in jeopardy relative to receipt of programmed funding.

- Mobility Budget Operating System

The Mobility Budget Operating System (BOS) consists of engineer

systems designed for use in a variety of missions including mobility,

counter-mobility, survivability, sustainment, and general engineering. The major categories in the Engineer BOS are construction

equipment, counter-mine equipment, munitions, tactical bridging

equipment, and armored engineer vehicles. Of those, the Army

National Guard is projected to have 1,812 (87%) on hand (this is

a mixed fleet of new production equipment, older cascaded equipment, and legacy equipment). Based on FY11 authorizations, the

ARNG expects to be at 100% on hand by the end of FY11 for the

following systems: bull dozers (276), light loaders (270), graders

(366), and high mobility engineer excavators (80). Hydraulic excavators will be at 114 of 152 (75%), heavy loaders 106 of 146

(73%), scrapers at 360 of 398 (90%), and back hoe loaders at

240 of 391 (61%) authorized systems on hand. The Countermine

Vehicle Systems will be fielded to 17 of 304 (6%) by the end of

FY11. Medium mine protected vehicles are projected to be at 0 of

196 authorized, mine protected clearance vehicles at 3 of 36

(8%), and vehicle-mounted mine detectors at 14 of 72 (19%) projected on hand by the end of FY11. Additionally the AN-PSS-14

Mine Detector is projected to have 3,088 of 4,457 (69%) authorized systems on hand by the end of FY11. 

There is a current requirement for 669 munitions based on one system, the Network Command Munitions Spider System, based upon

FY11 authorizations. The Spider is projected to have 128 of 669

(19%) systems on hand by the end of FY11. Fielding to continental

U.S. units will not begin until FY11, when full materiel release is

authorized. There is a current requirement for 1,238 major tactical

bridging systems based upon FY11 authorizations. Of those, the

ARNG is projected to have 1,102 (89%) on hand. Common bridge

transporters are projected to have 644 of 676 (95%), dry support

bridges with 24 of 24 (100%), improved ribbon bridges with 270

of 366 (74%), and bridge erection boats with 164 of 172 (95%)

authorized systems on hand by the end of FY11. There is a current

requirement for 264 armored engineer vehicles based upon FY11

authorizations. Of those, the Army National Guard is projected to

have 228 (86%) on hand. Based on FY11 authorizations, the

ARNG expects to be at 100% on hand by the end of FY11 for the

following legacy systems: the armored vehicle launch bridge at

107, and the armored combat earthmover at 115. 

A new system, the armored breaching vehicle, is projected to

have 6 of 115 authorized systems, 5%, on hand by the end of

FY11. Current funding levels will provide the ARNG with a modernized fleet of both horizontal and vertical engineer assets that

will satisfy many of the dual-use capabilities currently sought after

by the Army National Guard leadership. Operation Iraqi

Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom operations are utilizing

route clearance vehicles in theatre with a minimal requirement for

training vehicles in the continental U.S. As a methodology for sustainment of the health of the engineer fleet, the Guard has typically used a commercial off the shelf system to fulfill requirements

common to everyday engineer tasks.
- Force Protection Budget Operating System

The Force Protection Budget Operating System (BOS) contains

many separate systems and subsystems. A large number of these

systems are considered “legacy,” or obsolete, and are currently

being replaced by the more modern chemical agent detectors;

biological and protective shelters; and decontamination equipment. The BOS consists of the Joint Service Transportable

Decontamination System-Small Scale (JSTDS-SS) and collective

protection assets including Collective Protection: Simplified

(M20), Joint Chemical Agent Detector (JCAD), and Chemical

and Biological Protected Shelter (CBPS) System. JSTDS-SS will

have 439 systems fielded out of 1755 authorized (25%) with a

shortfall valued at $43 million. The M20 will have 861 out of

2,058 (42%) with a shortfall value of $22.9 million. JCAD will

have 19,408 systems fielded out of 19,408 (100%). CBPS will

have 2 systems fielded out of 306 (1%) with a shortfall value of

$223 million. Currently, CBPS and JSTDSSS are fully funded. 

- Soldier Systems Budget Operating System

The Soldier Systems Budget Operating System includes small

arms, night vision goggles, and thermal weapons sights, along

with associated accessories. Small arms are 42 line item numbers

that include M14/M16-series rifles, M4-series carbines, M9/M11

pistols, M500/M26 shotguns, M249/M240/M2/Mk19-series

machine guns, M203/M320-series grenade launchers,

M24/M110/M107-series sniper rifles, M68/M150 daylight

optics, and associated support systems. Small arms are fully funded in all systems with the exception of the M320-series grenade

launchers, M2 machine gun, and various machine gun support

systems which have a combined $19 million equipment shortfall. 

Current planned funding and deliveries are believed to be sufficient to meet ARNG small arms equipping needs; additional

funding for shortfall systems would not be able to be spent due to

a lack of industrial capacity. The projected status of night vision

goggles (NVGs) at the end of FY11 is 30,794 out of 30,794

(100%) on hand. The combined projected status of NVGs, which

includes PVS-5 and PVS-7 authorizations, at the end of FY11 is

207,017 out of 225,860 (92%) on hand. The projected status of

thermal weapons sights at the end of FY11 is 39,312 out of

41,918 (94%) on hand based upon FY11 approved MTOE/TDA

authorizations.

- Transportation Budget Operating System

The Transportation Budget Operating System consists of light tactical vehicles (LTVs), family of medium tactical vehicles (FMTVs),

heavy tactical vehicles (HTVs), and tactical trailers. The combined

post-FY11 shortage of these systems is estimated at $5.1 billion

including modernizing the LTV fleet. Currently the Army National

Guard has 46,129 LTVs of 46,903 (98%). By the end of FY11,

the ARNG is projected to have 100% of its LTV requirement; however, only 17% of the fleet is modernized and deployable, and

this number will grow only to 28% by the end of FY10. The

remaining high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicle

(HMMWV) fleet is comprised of legacy, non-armored vehicles

that are not capable of performing full-spectrum operations. The

Guard currently has 1,214 HMMWV ambulances of 1,700

(70%). To mitigate this shortfall, the ARNG is investing in 500

modern M1152 HMMWV ambulances to support homeland

defense and domestic support operations. Upon completion, the

Army National Guard will increase the HMMWV ambulance

equipment on-hand posture to over 85% by FY12.

Medium tactical trucks are the backbone of the Army National

Guard’s truck fleet and critical to performing domestic and overseas contingency operations missions. The ARNG’s medium truck

fleet lags behind the Active Component in both on-hand numbers

and fleet modernization. Currently the Guard’s medium truck fleet

has a significant number of 20- to 30-year old legacy vehicles

which are becoming more difficult to maintain. The ARNG currently has 25,293 MTVs of 27,893 (90%). However, only 35%

of the medium truck fleet is modernized with FMTV variants. For

the family of heavy tactical trucks (FHTV), the ARNG is rapidly

approaching 100% fill across all variants. The FHTV consists of

all heavy expanded mobility tactical truck (HEMTT) variants such

as cargo trucks, wreckers, and HEMTT fuel tankers. Palletized

load systems and cargo handling units are also included in the

FHTV. The Army National Guard is focused on replacing and recapitalizing older FHTV systems with modern armored vehicle

systems during the FY10-15 period.

Army National Guard

Top 25 Equipment 

Modernization Shortfall List

The Army National Guard’s “Top 25 Equipment Modernization

Shortfall List” (Top 25 List) is a venue for identifying critical systems that should be given special attention by the National

Guard community. The Top 25 List is developed on an annual

basis and released at the National Guard Association of the

United States’ Industry Day. This list identifies the ARNG’s most

critical systems with modernization shortfalls used for homeland

defense, expeditionary, and disaster-response missions. This list

represents the most modern equipment available for procurement. The majority of systems on the Top 25 List have current

requirements; however some equipment is an anticipated future

requirement and does not have an Army Acquisition Objective

(AAO) or Program of Record (POR) yet. The Top 25 List is depicted in Figure 13 and the current status/requirements information is

provided on pages 69-87.

Army National Guard 

Equipping Challenges

The greatest Army National Guard equipping challenges include

achieving full component-level transparency for equipment procurement and distribution; equipping ARNG units for pre-mobilization training and deployment; equipping Guard units for their

homeland mission regardless of their position in the Army Force

Generation cycle; modernizing the Army National Guard helicopter fleet; modernizing the ARNG tactical wheeled vehicle fleet;

and maintaining interoperability with Active Component forces.

Achieving Transparency Within 

the Army’s Procurement Process

Over the past year, the Army set in motion efforts to attain transparency within its equipment procurement and distribution

processes. As part of this initiative, Army G8, ASA (Financial

Management & Comptroller), and ASA (ALT) implemented an

equipment tracking process for 30 systems with $50 million or

more in procurement funding. This effort traced FY09 funding and

quantities through the acquisition process from request to appropriation to procurement to delivery. As a result of this process, the

Army identified a total of $1.43 billion in decrements to Army

National Guard resources during FY09, $772 million of which

may require a payback of some type. The ARNG is working with

the Army staff to reconcile these discrepancies and develop payback plans where appropriate.

The Army also began providing quarterly equipment delivery

reports (EDRs) to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) to

summarize the transparency data collected during the fiscal year.

While the FY09 quarterly EDRs identified “delivered quantities,”

they did not provide “due-in” quantities. This information is key

because the Chief, National Guard Bureau is required by the

National Defense Authorization Act of FY08 (NDAA 08) to

report quantities received against those due in. The Army intends

to work with OSD to modify the format of the report for FY10 to

provide this additional data. These “due-in” quantities will provide a useful tool for determining if equipment distributions to the

ARNG during semi-annual Army Enterprise Equipping and Reuse

Conferences are commensurate with appropriated funding. 

Summary and Conclusions

In recent years, the Army has adopted a commitment to equip

and modernize Army National Guard units so that they achieve

parity with Active Component units. As a result of this commitment, the ARNG has or will receive its full requirement of several

warfighting and critical dual-use items/systems such as heavy tactical vehicles, small arms, Warfighter Information NetworkTactical (WIN-T), rotary-wing aviation systems, fire support systems, and armored combat vehicles during the next several years.

Beginning in FY09, the Army began to capture the data necessary to make its equipment procurement and distribution processes transparent at the component level and is now submitting quarterly equipment delivery reports to OSD. Beginning in FY10, the

Army National Guard will measure equipment received against

what is “due in” based on appropriated funding. The process will

be fully auditable; however, the data collection effort is still largely manual, and more work is needed to automate it. Improved

transparency has already allowed the ARNG to identify situations where funds or equipment was diverted to support other

Army priorities and the Guard is working with the Army to establish payback plans where applicable.

Although the Army’s goal is to fully modernize the Army National

Guard to achieve parity with the Active Component, the ARNG

lags behind in some key areas including tactical wheeled vehicles

and helicopters. Continued receipt of National Guard and

Reserve Equipment Appropriation and congressionally-added

funding will greatly assist the Guard in continuing to close the

Active Component/Reserve Component modernization and interoperability gap, and improving critical dual-use equipping levels

across the 54 states and territories.

Production has been limited by the filter in the system. Projected distribution is 10 per month for

FY10 and FY11. The M20 was recently moved back to a Class 7 item from Class 2. Being a Class 2 item may have caused units to not order this item due to cost, causing an increase in the shortfall. The System Synchronization Officer (SSO) is currently in the process of requesting an

increase in production to decrease this shortfall. 71

CHEMICAL DETECTION

Joint Chemical Agent Detector (JCAD)

The JCAD is a combined portable monitoring and small point chemical agent detector for aircraft,

shipboard, and individual Soldier applications. This hand-held, pocket-sized detector is required

to automatically detect, identify, and quantify chemical agents inside aircraft or ships, providing

protection for the individual service member. For the duration of the mission, the device must be

sufficiently sensitive to warn aircrews before accumulation of a chemical agent that will cause

miosis or more severe effects. It must be resistant to the severe interferent environment on a naval

vessel and be small and rugged for individual use. The JCAD replaces the M22 ACADA, M8A1

Alarm, and the CAM/ICAM.

JCAD will enter full rate production (FRP) in FY10. Currently, the Material Fielding Division is

staffing a proposed plan to field JCAD at an accelerated pace by implementing a consolidated fielding plan for the ARNG. Within this current fielding plan, the Program Manager would conduct a separate fielding for each state or location. To date, no units have been fielded within the

ARNG. The current AEERC Equipment Distribution Plan (EDP) projects 17,983 systems for the

ARNG. This total amount will be applied to the above FY11 Total Authorization and a JCAD onefor-one replacement of the M8A1 and M22 ACADA for a combined authorization total of 19,408. Projected shortfall quantity after FY11 (Subs Applied) is zero.

Vehicle Mounted Mine Detection System (VMMDS)

The Vehicle Mounted Mine Detector (VMMD) (also called the Husky) is a single operator four-wheel

drive vehicle with armored protection. The Husky has arms or pans that fold down from the vehicle

that are metallic mine detectors. The vehicle uses a water-cooled, 6-cylinder inline direct injection

diesel turbocharged engine and has two heavy-duty axles designed to be rapidly repaired when

damaged by explosive devices. A VMMD system consists of two Huskies and one Mine Detection

Trailer (MDT). The repair parts, special tools, and axle systems are found in the Red and Blue Pack

Conex Containers (one each per system). The Red Pack is the Spare Wheel Module (SWM) and can

be towed. It is the operator/crew and unit level repair kit for the VMMD system. The Blue Pack is a

20-foot MilVan container with spare parts and accessories. The Blue Pack carries unit level parts for

the VMMD system during countermine operations. The Husky is the primary vehicle in the VMMD system. It is also the prime mover for the MDT. The system has the capability of detecting buried anti-vehicle mines by using pulse induction type mine detectors fitted to both the lead and trailing Husky.

Mine Protected Clearance Vehicle (MPCV)

The MPCV, or Buffalo, is an all-terrain, all-weather, wheeled armored vehicle with an articulating

arm mounted on the front of the vehicle with a rake head that assists in locating explosive hazards.

The vehicle has six wheels and is heavily armored. The windows are armored glass to increase visibility without reducing the safety of the Soldiers. The vehicle is designed to survive antitank blasts

up to 15 pounds of TNT and provides Soldier protection against 7.62mm NATO Ball standard

munitions. The vehicle's articulating arm has digging and lifting attachments and is coupled with a

camera system that allows personnel to remotely interrogate a suspected explosive hazard, allowing the crew to confirm, deny, and/or classify the explosive hazard. Seating capacity allows for

driver and troop commander plus up to 12 personnel. A weapons system is not mounted on this

vehicle. The MPCV is capable of traveling with combat loads at speeds up to 60 MPH on

improved roads. It can travel on unimproved roads, and is capable of working on rough, soft, and

unimproved ground at reduced speeds. The MPCV will be used in the clearance company for route

clearance and area clearance operations to defeat explosive hazards. This vehicle is a new system to close a capability gap and does not replace any other system or vehicle.

(ULUV)

The ULUV is an “off the shelf” all-terrain vehicle combat multiplier employed in the role of logistics support and casualty evacuation for forward deployed units. The system greatly reduces the

manpower-intensive tasks of transporting ammunition, supplies, subsistence, and other material in

and around forward operating bases, engineer work sites, supply stations, base camps, etc.

*Special LIN – no MTOE/TDA information available

Currently, there are no ARNG documented requirements for ULUVs, the items are managed as

special LINs. In FY10, the ARNG purchased 260 ULUVs with NGREA funds to meet the immediate operational needs of the states. These vehicles were anticipated to be delivered by the end

of December 2009. Ther

e are $4.8 million of Congressional additional funds that are being

Increment (Inc) 1

The WIN-T Inc 1 program has a strong proponent backing and is currently meeting the G3/5/7

Army Force Generation fielding schedule. Fielding for Increment 1 is currently scheduled to continue through 1st quarter FY12. The source documentation equipment shortfall does not accurately reflect the current WIN-T Inc 1 Headquarters, Department of the Army approved fielding

schedule for the Army National Guard. After 1st quarter FY12, the ARNG will have one expeditionary signal battalion (ESB), the 136th, remaining to field WIN-T Inc 1, producing an equipment shortfall value of $11 million. It is important to note that the dollar shortfall is for signal fielding specific to ESBs (two single shelter switch (AN/TTC-56) - $5 million and 4 Tropo scatter radio

terminals (AN/TRC-170A) - $6 million).

The NCO Creed —————————————————————

No one is more professional than I. I am a Noncommissioned Officer, a leader of soldiers. As a

Noncommissioned Officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is

known as "The Backbone of the Army". I am proud of the Corps of Noncommissioned Officers

and will at all times conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the Military Service

and my country regardless of the situation in which I find myself. I will not use my grade or 

position to attain pleasure, profit, or personal safety.

—————————————————————

Competence is my watchword. My two basic responsibilities will always be uppermost in my

mind -- accomplishment of my mission and the welfare of my soldiers. I will strive to remain 

tactically and technically proficient. I am aware of my role as a Noncommissioned Officer. I

will fulfill my responsibilities inherent in that role. All soldiers are entitled to outstanding 

leadership; I will provide that leadership. I know my soldiers and I will always place their needs

above my own. I will communicate consistently with my soldiers and never leave them 

uninformed. I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.

—————————————————————

Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties; they will not have to

accomplish mine. I will earn their respect and confidence as well as that of my soldiers. I will be

loyal to those with whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike. I will exercise initiative

by taking appropriate action in the absence of orders. I will not compromise my integrity, nor

my moral courage. I will not forget, nor will I allow my comrades to forget that we are 

professionals, Noncommissioned Officers, leaders!
