United States National Guard

The United States National Guard was a reserve force of the United States Army (the Army National Guard) and the United States Air Force (the Air National Guard). It can be called in to service by a governor of a state during an emergency or the President of the United States, and is often used to serve with the other armed forces abroad or to assist in domestic crises.

Day 6
The National Guard was charged with imprisoning 110 dangerous terrorists at the Palmdale Military prison. When President Wayne Palmer was pressured by Abu Fayed, he ordered to have the prisoners released, so the Guard moved them all to a jet and awaited further instructions. One of the guardsmen, paid off by Fayed, let Hasan Numair escape, meet with Fayed, and assist in the arming of a suitcase nuclear device.
