Army National Guard careers
Transportation Specialists are the muscle behind the Guard's operational agility, stateside and beyond. Moving equipment and personnel takes strength, energy and intelligence—qualities that define the Guard's transport experts. In combat, these road warriors climb into monster vehicles with mounted weapons and dominate the roadways. The Guard owns a vast fleet of 50,000 wheeled vehicles. During state emergencies, Guard drivers enter high-water vehicles and watercraft to lead rescue efforts, often arriving as the first sight of hope to those in need. With their strong blend of mind and muscle, transport Soldiers possess skill sets valued in the distribution industry.
