Скачать или смотреть Why Someone Chooses the National Guard (A Parent’s Perspective)

People don’t join the military for just one reason.

Some want help paying for college.
Some want real job skills.
Some want structure, direction, or purpose.
Others want a challenge they can be proud of.

The National Guard offers a way to do all of that — without leaving home full-time.

Guard service is part-time by design.
They still go to school.
They still work their job.
They still live locally.

But now they also earn benefits, gain structure, build experience, and get a real head start on adulthood.

This isn’t about pushing someone out of their life.
It’s about helping them build what comes next.

If a Recruiter shared this video, they can walk you through exactly what Guard service looks like — schedules, commitments, benefits, and expectations — so you’re not guessing.

Ask questions. That’s what this process is for.

Welcome to the Guard Community Partner Series.

Thinking about joining the military? Researching the military, Army or National Guard? Trying to understand how enlistment, MEPS, MOS choices, and military life actually work?

Zero Day Swag makes real-talk military content for people at Day Zero — the moment you’re trying to figure out what you’re signing up for before it gets serious. We break down Army life, military jobs, the enlistment process, and what changes after you raise your right hand, without the Recruiter voice or fake hype.

This channel is built by Army and Army National Guard vets who already lived it. Some videos explain the basics. Others go deeper. All of them are meant to give clarity before commitment.

You’re probably not ready for this life.
Most people aren’t.
But you can be.

Welcome to the Tribe. This is Zero Day.
