Since 1636, members of the National Guard have responded when our Nation, their State, or their communities called. The National Guard is the country’s oldest military force, tracing its roots back to the first regiments of the Massachusetts Colony. From those initial roots to the ever-evolving world we live in today, the men and women of the National Guard have proven they are "Always Ready, Always There!" EANGUS is proud to recognize all the Soldiers and Airmen of the National Guard, past and present. Happy 385th Birthday!

Congratulations to MSgt Matt Phelps, 195 Wing, CA, who was awarded the EANGUS Heroism Medal for actions he took to save a life in June 2020. MSgt Phelps was unable to attend the EANGUS National Conference in August and we appreciate CALEANGUS State President Josh J. Baker (right), who presented the award on our behalf during the unit’s holiday party at Beale AFB on December 5, 2021.

The Heroism Award was given to MSgt Phelps for his actions on June 7, 2020 when he was driving home from duty on S CA HWY 99, in Yuba County and came upon a vehicle accident. MSgt Phelps stopped his vehicle and backed-up to the area where he found tire marks leaving the highway, through a fence, and into a canal of water. He witnessed a minivan in water about waist deep and went to assist. The driver was slumped over the steering wheel. MSgt Phelps then contacted the California Highway Patrol and remained with the injured driver until CHP arrived. MSgt Phelps assisted the CHP in extracting the driver from the vehicle, the canal, and to safety. MSgt Phelps was in uniform and is a CA ANG full-time technician on FTNGD (CARES act) status [at the time of the incident]. MSgt Phelps‘ actions directly contributed to saving the life of the driver.
