On September 2, 1957, the day before the nine black students were to enter Central High, National Guardsmen surrounded the school. In a televised speech that night, Governor Orval Faubus explained that he had called the National Guardmen because he had heard that white supremacists from all over the state were descending on Little Rock. He declared Central off-limits to blacks and Horace Mann, the black high school, off-limits to whites. He also proclaimed that if the black students attempted to enter Central, "blood would run in the streets."\n\nThe black students did not attend the first day of school. Early on Wednesday, September 4, Daisy Bates of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), who was helping out the nine, called to tell them that they were to meet a few blocks away from the school and walk in together. Unfortunately, Elizabeth Eckford, one of the nine, did not have a phone. She never received the message and attempted to enter the school alone through the front entrance. An angry mob met her, threatening to lynch her, as the Arkansas National Guard looked on. Fortunately, two whites stepped forward to aid her, and she escaped without injury. The other eight were also denied admittance by the National Guard, under orders from Governor Faubus

There are still unknown soldiers there.  The unknown soldier from the Vietnam war was removed when he was identified by DNA analysis.  The others will almost certainly never be ID'ed at this late date.\n\nThe guards are there to honor those who not only gave their lives, but their very identities to their nation's defense.  It is guarded 24/7 for that reason.  \n\nThere are so many rules partially because the military really likes rules, but mainly because it is both an honor and a privilage to be a guard at the tomb, and also a great responsibility.  The memory of those entombed there cannot be dishonored by sloppy practices and half-hearted drill.

Yes there is.  The Army National Guard is state run, the governor of the state is in charge of them.  The reserves are federally run and fall under the president of the US.

The military is not allowed to step in and deal with law enforcement unless Martial Law is declared.  It is called the Posse Comitatus Act .  It can only be done if the Pres deems it in the very best interest of the people.\n\nThere are a number of situations in which the Act does not apply. These include:\n\nNational Guard units while under the authority of the governor of a state; \nTroops when used pursuant to the Federal authority to quell domestic violence as was the case during the 1992 Los Angeles riots; \nTroops used under the order of the President of the United States pursuant to the Insurrection Act \nIn December 1981 additional laws were enacted clarifying permissible military assistance to civilian law enforcement agencies—including the Coast Guard—especially in combating drug smuggling into the United States. Posse Comitatus clarifications emphasize supportive and technical assistance (e.g., use of facilities, vessels, aircraft, intelligence, tech aid, surveillance) while generally prohibiting direct participation of Department of Defense personnel in law enforcement (e.g., search, seizure, and arrests). For example, Coast Guard Law Enforcement Detachments (LEDETS) serve aboard Navy vessels and perform the actual boardings of interdicted suspect drug smuggling vessels and, if needed, arrest their crews. \nUnder 18 U.S.C. § 831, the Attorney General may request that the Secretary of Defense provide emergency assistance if civilian law enforcement is inadequate to address certain types of threat involving the release of nuclear materials, such as potential use of a Nuclear or Radiological weapon. Such assistance may be by any personnel under the authority of the Department of Defense, provided such assistance does not adversely affect U.S. military preparedness. \nThe United States Coast Guard is not affected by the act during peacetime.

It's called "Posse Commentates."  It was passed in the late 1880's so as to assure the Federal Government didn't have to much power to control the populace.

Jeb would probably be working at McDonald's, and George W. would be incarcerated for going AWOL on the National Guard.

In 1972, four years into his six-year guard commitment, he was asked to work for the campaign of Bush family friend Winton Blount, who was running for the U.S. Senate in Alabama. In May Bush requested a transfer to an Alabama Air National Guard unit with no planes and minimal duties. Bush's immediate superiors approved the transfer, but higher-ups said no. The matter was delayed for months. In August Bush missed his annual flight physical and was grounded. (Some have speculated that he was worried about failing a drug test--the Pentagon had instituted random screening in April.) In September he was ordered to report to a different unit of the Alabama guard, the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Group in Montgomery. Bush says he did so, but his nominal superiors say they never saw the guy, there's no documentation he ever showed up, and not one of the six or seven hundred soldiers then in the unit has stepped forward to corroborate Bush's story.\n\nAfter the November election Bush returned to Texas, but apparently didn't notify his old Texas guard unit for quite a while, if ever. The Boston Globe initially reported that he started putting in some serious duty time in May, June, and July of 1973 to make up for what he'd missed. But according to a piece in the New Republic, there's no evidence Bush did even that. Whatever the case, even though his superiors knew he'd blown off his duties, they never disciplined him. (No one's ever been shot at dawn for missing a weekend guard drill, but policy at the time was to put shirkers on active duty.) Indeed, when Bush decided to go to business school at Harvard in the fall of 1973, he requested and got an honorable discharge--eight months before his service was scheduled to end.\n\nBush's enemies say all this proves he was a cowardly deserter. Nonsense. He was a pampered rich kid who took advantage.

must be a question from Arkansas

I don't think so. And it was the Army, not the national guard. Some Russians liberated them as well!

The National Guard is a reserve component of the US Army.  Members of the Guard are part of the US Army but - in peacetime - report to the state governors.  This dual federal and state role allows soldiers in the National Guard to perform missions that 'Federal' soldiers are legally barred from doing. (Such as law enforcement.)\n\nAll National Guard soldiers must meet the same standards as their active duty counterparts.  And National Guard units are organized identically to an equalivalent active duty unit.\n\nA typical National Guard soldier holds a civilian job and drills one weekend each month and attends a two week training period every year.  \n\nWhen called to federal service the soldiers and the unit leave the National Guard and become part of the active duty army.  (As a result technically there are no 'National Guard' units in Iraq.  They are all 'US Army' and revert to National Guard status after they return home.)\n\nOne of the unique aspects of the National Guard is that these are true 'citizen-soldiers.'  In ordinary times they are ordinary people who have jobs, go to school and live the same lives as everybody else.  In time of emergency they stand ready to protect their communities and their nation.  There are Guard soldiers who have gone to Iraq, returned home then - a few months later - were rescuing people from the floodwaters in New Orleans.\n\n'Civilian in peace, soldier in war - I am the Guard"

In terms of needs, the Freedmen's bureau provided education, job skills and all the things that were denied them as slaves. The federal government cut funding for the bureau and it soon failed in its mission. \nBasically, the northern politicians stopped caring about the plight of the A-A, cut funding to resources like the Bureau to help them and didn't enforce the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments. It is almost like institutional racism. You can't change people's beliefs overnight and there just wasn't a sense of urgency after all the fighting of the war to change them or to fight again to make them true equals and really help the A-A.\nAlot of people, North and South didn't want to have A-A and whites on equal terms. Many wanted them to not be slaves anymore, but not equals, so they just ignored the Jim Crow laws and the institutional seperate but equal doctrines of the times until whites and A-A fought side-by-side in WW II.\n\nAlso, a lot of the same politicans who were pro-slavery went back into power at the state and federal levels in the south after the war and weren't really willing to change their attitudes.
