HQ Air National Guard Bureau

The Headquarters Air National Guard Bureau (HQ ANG) serves as the central command and administrative hub for the Air National Guard (ANG) within the United States. Established to coordinate and oversee policies, programs, and operations for ANG units nationwide, the bureau traces its roots to the formation of the ANG following the National Security Act of 1947. Throughout its history, HQ ANG has played a critical role in organizing, training, and equipping Guard units for both federal missions and state emergencies. The bureau continues to facilitate the integration of ANG forces into active duty Air Force operations, ensuring readiness and strategic support at home and abroad.
