§ 168 Military Officer Duties

This law says state National Guard officers must do the jobs that the law and regulations say, and those jobs should match what the same‑rank officers do in the U.S. Army, Air Force, and Navy. It also says the Assistant Adjutant General has to be a brigadier general and get the same pay as a brigadier general in the Army.

Key Takeaways

•State Guard officers must follow duties set by law and match DoD duties for the same rank.
•The Assistant Adjutant General must hold the rank of brigadier general.
•The Assistant Adjutant General gets the same salary and allowances as a U.S. Army brigadier general.

Example

A state National Guard captain is given a new set of duties. He must follow the state's rules and also make sure his duties line up with what a U.S. Army captain would be doing.

Because of this law, the captain’s tasks have to match the official Army duties for his rank, so he does the same kind of work the Army does. If the state appoints an Assistant Adjutant General, that person must be a brigadier general and will be paid just like a brigadier general in the Army.

The duties of the officers of the Office of the Adjutant General shall be such as are prescribed by law and regulations and shall conform as closely as practicable to the duties prescribed by orders and regulations of the Department of Defense for like officers in the United States Army, United States Air Force and United States Navy. The Assistant Adjutant General shall be a brigadier general and shall receive the same pay and allowances as a brigadier general in the United States Army. (Amended by Stats. 1949, Ch. 466.)
