Arkansas National Guard Eligibility in The American Legion

 

For one to qualify for membership, they must have served at least one day of federal active duty, honorably and during an eligible time period.

 

So as long as those who have or are still serving with the Arkansas National Guard served on federal active duty orders during one of our eligible time periods and served honorably, they would qualify for membership.

 

Active duty for basic training and AIT count towards membership because they are orders from the Department of Defense.



Sincerely,
Matthew E. Herndon, Assistant Director
Internal Affairs & Membership
