The Nevada National Guard consists of the Nevada Army National Guard, including distinguished units such as C Co. 1-168th GSAB Medevac "Wolfpack" and B Co. 1-189th Aviation "Mustangs" and the Nevada Air National Guard, including the 152nd Airlift Wing ''"High Rollers"''. The Nevada Office of the Military provides military organization for the Nevada National Guard, which consists of both the state’s Army Guard and Air Guard. It is the organized military force of the state, except when ordered into federal service. Under the National Defense Act of 1947, the Army and Air National Guard are reserve components of the United States Army and Air Force. The state’s Guard may also be ordered by the governor to serve the state by protecting persons or property from either man-made or natural disasters and suppressing or preventing riot, insurrection, invasion or violence. The governor is the commander-in-chief of the Nevada National Guard and appoints the adjutant general. The current adjutant general (as of February 2015) is Brigadier General William R. Burks. 〔http://www.nv.ngb.army.mil/nvng/index.cfm/leadership/subnav/the-adjutant-general/〕 Under the direction of the governor, the adjutant general is responsible for the supervision of all matters pertaining to the administration, discipline, mobilization, organization and training of the Nevada National Guard. ==Nevada Army National Guard== The Nevada National Guard is one of the 54 members (50 states, three territories and the District of Columbia) of the United States National Guard, part of the United States reserve forces.
