NG was for National Guard. this changed when army started to use social security numbers. I was in the national guard in 1957 and issued a NG number. Someone also posted a question was there a difference in treatment, answer to this, was YES. As a member of the National Guard, I was on active duty for six months. Regular army soldiers were treated with more respect, next was draftees and at the bottom of scale was National Guard soldiers. This is where the NO-GO came in. Regular Army got payed first and members of Guard got payed last. also members of the guard were not issued all the required uniforms due to budgets. In some cases guard members were issued used uniforms. One reason was the army personnel treated the national guard soldiers different, is that they considered them draft dodgers. To answer someone question I just listed a few items of difference.
