HOW IT WORKS

The Army National Guard's 19th and 20th Special Forces Groups give you the opportunity to be elite in your civilian life and your military life. Members of both units maintain the same certifications and qualifications, complete the same training, and perform the same missions as Active Duty Green Berets. All are qualified parachutists—and most are qualified free-fall (HALO) parachutists and combat divers.

Guard Special Forces live throughout the United States and train with their units one weekend (three to four days) per month, plus an additional two to four weeks of training per year. Deployments are also less frequent, generally once every two to three years for six to 15 months, allowing Guard Green Berets to live as both civilians and Special Forces team members.

To find out more about how you can join this elite force and still keep your civilian career, contact your nearest Special Forces Group.

Note: 

Note: You can serve in the Army National Guard Special Forces even if you live in a state that doesn't have a unit. Travel reimbursement for training periods is available for qualified Special Forces Soldiers.
