Functional Description
The dual State/Federal status of the National Guard, unique among all military forces in the world, must be recognized if the purpose of the USPFO is to be fully understood. The National Guard in each state and territory, until called to federal service by the President, is a State militia under control of the Governor. This fact, coupled with the extensive federal support provided the National Guard while in militia status, necessitates federal control over these resources. The USPFO, by statute, provides this internal control. It is an arrangement which, rather than removing direct control over resources to support the National Guard from State (i.e. the Adjutant General), provides for the Command in each state a highly qualified resource manager who fully supports the programs of the State while providing essential oversight of the federal interest (direct reference from NGR 130-6/ANGI 11-02).
