WHAT IS THE ANDREW JACKSON MEMORIAL SOCIETY
The North Carolina National Guard traces its heritage back to the 1663 Carolina Charter granting authority to "levy, muster and train men." In recent years, the NC Guard has reshaped itself in accordance with guidance from the Chief, National Guard Bureau and the departments of the Army and Air Force. On 24 May 1946, the United States Army Air Forces, in response to dramatic postwar military budget cuts imposed by President Harry S. Truman, allocated inactive unit designations to the National Guard Bureau for the formation of an Air Force National Guard. These unit designations were allotted and transferred to various State National Guard bureaus to provide them unit designations to re-establish them as Air National Guard units.
