The Air National Guard (ANG) is part of both the National Guard and the Air Force. As part of the National Guard, the ANG falls under the administration of the National Guard Bureau and is funded by the federal government. The National Guard functions under a law called Title 32, which dictates how long Guardsmen serve, how they are paid, and what duties they can be assigned. In addition, there are approximately 1100 Air National Guard members in Title 10 status, which means they are managed like active duty members. The ANG is also a reserve component of the Air Force, and during deployment (or active duty), Guard units report to the Air Force command. The ANG and the Air Force Reserve are both reserve components of the Air Force, but while the Air Force Reserve always reports to the active Air Force command who report to the President, the ANG at times reports to the governor of the unit's state or territory.
