About Us
The Enlisted Association of the New York National Guard (EANYNG) represents all enlisted men and women in the organized forces of the New York National Guard, which includes approximately 18,000 members of the Army National Guard, the Air National Guard.
EANYNG is a registered, non-profit organization, dedicated to promoting the status, welfare, and professionalism of all members of the State's organized militia. This is accomplished through support of our parent organization, The Enlisted Association of the National Guard of the United States (EANGUS) and its national legislative initiatives, plus various benefit packages offered to both the State and National membership.
EANYNG is divided into six regions across the state from Long Island to Buffalo, each having one Army and one Air director and a region seven with one director covering all members outside of New York State. Along with our Executive Officers, the region directors make up the governing body. Membership is open to all enlisted grades, E1 to E9, both active and retired, and associate members who share our common goals.
The diversity of our Executive Council is representative of the entire Guard community and enhances our ability to effectively represent the entire state membership.
The Enlisted Association recognizes, through our Awards Program, the outstanding men and women of the New York National Guard. At our Annual State Conference, we honor both Army and Air Guard members, who are the State's outstanding soldier, airman, NCO, and Senior NCO of the Year.
The legislative efforts of the Enlisted Association is an ongoing process. We have previously introduced into legislation, bills that would: A - Eliminate New York State income tax on the first $1000 of a guard member's drill pay. B - Allow guard members free access to State Parks, toll-roads and toll-bridges. C - Provide free hunting and fishing licenses to guard members. D - Provide tuition-free admission to State schools and colleges for guard members. *** Signed into law Aug 1996 E - Waive the Hunter Safety Course requirement for guard members applying for a hunting license. F - Exempt guard members from paying Drivers' License Fees. G - Provide free Militiamen License Plates for members of the NYS organized militia. *** Signed into law Aug 1996
LEGISLATIVE SUCCESSES
GET INVOLVED - EANGUS urges all of its members to get involved with the legislative process. The biggest influence we have on Congress is our members' letters to them. EANGUS accomplishes many of its legislative goals with only a small percentage of our membership actually participating. Just think of what we could accomplish if everyone did!!
