Departmental Performance Report C-1 Iowa Department of Public Defense Annual Report 2017 Page i GENERAL The National Guard. The "Militia Concept" is woven into the fabric of the Constitution and early laws for the command defense, and as a result, under federal and state laws, it has both a federal and state status. The Army National Guard and the Air National Guard, in accordance with federal law, provide essential units as part of this nation's defense structure. The National Guard, whose origins trace back to 1636, is the embodiment of volunteerism. Its members are subject to “call” or “order to active duty” in the service of the United States in times of national emergency and when disasters and emergencies occur in the several states. The National Guard is organized under Army and Air Force tables of organization and equipment, and is equipped and trained in accordance with DOD policies. The Iowa Army and Air National Guard, when not in the active service of the United States, are administered in accordance with directives promulgated by the National Guard Bureau (NGB), an agency of the DOD, and the military laws of the State of Iowa. The Governor of Iowa is the Commander in Chief. The Adjutant General of Iowa is responsible to the Governor for administration, training, recruitment, and efficient operation of the Iowa Army and Air National Guard when not in the active services of the United States. Department Overview Vision To be an Organization of Excellence, Dedicated to Providing a Mission-Ready, Full-Spectrum, Joint-Capable Force Serving our Nation, State, and Community. Mission The Iowa National Guard Trains, Mobilizes, Deploys, Sustains and Reconstitutes Units; Providing Ready Forces in Defense of our Nation, State, and Community. Values Iowa National Guard Values mirror the “The Army and Air Force Values”. These values are prominently displayed in every facility to guide us in our day-to-day operations. “Readiness” was added to ensure that we maintain personal readiness at all times. Loyalty Bear true faith and allegiance to the U.S. constitution, the Army, the Air Force, and other Soldiers and Airmen. Be loyal to the Nation and its heritage. Duty Fulfill your obligations. Accept responsibility for your own actions and those entrusted to your care. Find opportunities to improve oneself for the good of the group. Iowa Department of Public Defense Annual Report 2017 Page 1 Respect Treat people as they should be treated. Treat others with dignity and respect while expecting others to do the same. Selfless Service Put the welfare of the nation, the Army, the Air Force, and your subordinates before your own. Selfless service leads to organizational teamwork and encompasses discipline, self-control and faith in the system. Honor Live up to all the Army and Air Force values. Integrity Do what is right, legally and morally. Be willing to do what is right even when no one is looking. It is our "moral compass", an inner voice. Personal Courage The ability to face fear, danger, or adversity, both physical and moral courage. Readiness Insure that our units and members are trained and equipped to perform their assigned missions. Iowa National Guard Principles of Command Our command philosophy is the essence of our command and operations activities. They guide our leadership and members in the accomplishing our missions, achieving high levels of excellence, and continually improving. Embrace the Army and Air Force Values. Excellence – Striving to be excellent in all we do, always. We are a team first. Be known as team players. It is about “we, not me” that counts. Soldiers and Airmen are our credentials; treat them with dignity and respect. Integrity is measured by what you do when no one is watching you – don’t compromise. “Do the right thing”; “Do the work”. Teach, coach, and mentor at all levels of leadership and management. Teach our people how to think; great leaders are great teachers. Your mark on your profession is a quality of junior leaders who follow you – junior leaders are our legacy. Foster and display Warrior Ethos. Don’t rationalize failure – “Can Do”. Measure and mitigate risk; don’t gamble with safety. Bad news doesn’t get better with age. We must allow mistakes to teach and learn – we must never allow failure to grow as a cultural characteristic. Train for the away game; sustain and improve the home game. Cross-pollination of Soldiers/Airmen and leaders between commands is a great thing. Iowa Department of Public Defense Annual Report 2017 Page 2 Get out with Soldiers/Airmen; they appreciate it and you benefit by their response. Remember, those who “do” and those who “have done” must tolerate those who are about to “be”. Maintain a balance of life – mind, body, and soul. Have a winning attitude – it’s infectious. Keep your sense of humor; have fun. Mission focused – Warrior Ready! Missions of the Army and Air Components. Federal Missions.
