Alumni Association
Connect with your Guard Family

The mission of the Indiana National Guard Alumni Association is to stay connected with soldiers, airmen and other alumni by sharing news, information and events after retirement or separation from the Indiana National Guard. This program is not intended to take the place of existing support programs and retiree/alumni groups, but rather to serve as a communication link between the INNG and alumni, and to coordinate programs of general interest such as INNG updates and annual reunions.
