The ANG provides an opportunity for individuals to enjoy civilian life while contributing to the welfare of their country and state. They earn extra money, travel, learn a skill or trade, and enjoy a break from the daily routine of life.

INCENTIVES:

• Trades or Skills Available in the ANG: The majority of all ANG career fields are compatible to civilian jobs and provide an excellent opportunity to prepare for civilian employment. These fields include Telecommunications, Electronics, Aircraft Maintenance, Telephone Repair, Civil Engineering, Vehicle Repair, Law Enforcement, Medical, Computers, and Information Management. The above career fields are only a few of the many that the ANG has to offer.
• Excellent Pay and Allowances: Where can you work two days a month and be paid for four days? That is exactly what you get for a Unit Training Assembly, or what we like to call a Drill Weekend. Your pay will depend on your rank or pay grade and length of time you have been a member of the military. There is no better part-time job opportunity in the state of California. You will also earn money while you learn. This is a great way to supplement your civilian income. While you attend basic, technical training or annual field training you will always be earning more money.
• Life Insurance: As a member of the Air National Guard, you may purchase up to $400,000 worth of term life insurance for just $26 per month.
• Exchange & Commissary Privileges: You and your family will be able to shop at any military Exchange or Commissary. The Exchange is like your local department store where you can shop in person or on-line and - best of all - pay NO sales tax. The Commissary is like your local grocery store with a discount.
