U.S. National Guard Birthday - December 13

From the NFRW Armed Services Committee

Even though it’s not a federal holiday, the birthday of the U.S. National Guard — celebrated on December 13 — it is an important event to note. Established in 1636, the National Guard is the oldest military organization in America. Its members serve during times of war and emergency. Take time to honor those who have protected our country for centuries.
