The pages of Citizen-Soldier magazine and the Citizen-Soldier website are packed with stories, highlights and announcements geared toward helping Soldiers and their loved ones make the most of their time in the Guard.  Through the magazine, we will spotlight opportunities to maximize the benefits of military service and assist you in accomplishing your personal and professional goals.
