Along the Tennessee River, Decatur is a hub for Morgan County industry, recreation and community life. The Alabama Army National Guard armory in Decatur gives residents a local place to train and serve part time, with a military career that fits around the work and goals they already have. It’s service that keeps you connected to Morgan County.
Members keep their civilian jobs or continue their studies at schools like Calhoun Community College, while earning state and federal tuition assistance, GI Bill eligibility, health and dental coverage options, VA home loan eligibility and competitive part-time pay. Because Guard service is part time, it fits alongside a job at one of Decatur’s employers or a full class schedule.
Guard Soldiers from Decatur bring skills home to their workplaces and communities, and they stand ready to serve North Alabama and the nation as part of a team that looks out for one another. Why serve in a conventional way when you can serve on your terms, with a team that shares your commitment to the River City?
