The training concluded with the presentation of Course completion/graduation certificates to the soldier by Brigadier General Stephen A Bucaria, New York Guard Commander, and a Pass and Review of Troops Ceremony held on the Parade Field at Camp Smith Training Site on August 22nd 2015.
Unlike the New York Army or Air National Guard, members of the New York Guard are not in the federal military force, do not carry weapons, and do not conduct missions outside New York. Their role is to augment and assist the New York National Guard during state emergencies and National Guard domestic support missions as part of the state's military force. New York Guard members also assist National Guard units with administrative support and training during troop mobilizations. Photos by Captain Mark Getman, New York Guard PAO
