Arkansas National Guard traces its roots to the creation of the Territorial Militia in 1804. Interest in the Militia in Arkansas generally waxed and waned throughout the 19th century as various national emergencies arose and passed. Organizations existed at the county and city level, but regimental designations above the company level did not become stable until the closing years of the 19th century. During much of this time local militia companies were supported by private funds. Arkansas provided troops for the <a href="/wiki/War_with_Mexico" class="mw-redirect" title="War with Mexico">War with Mexico</a>, the <a href="/wiki/American_Civil_War" title="American Civil War">American Civil War</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Spanish%E2%80%93American_War" title="Spanish–American War">Spanish–American War</a> during the 19th century. In each case, in answer to the governor's call, local militia companies would turn out and be formed into regiments or <a href="/wiki/Battalion" title="Battalion">battalions</a> for induction into federal service. The militia was also heavily engaged in the violence that characterized the <a href="/wiki/Reconstruction_era_of_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="Reconstruction era of the United States">Reconstruction</a> period following the Civil War. </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Arkansas_National_Guard_during_World_War_I" title="Arkansas National Guard during World War I">Arkansas National Guard during World War I</a></div> <p>Following the Spanish–American War, the Federal Government slowly began to provide increasing funding and direction to the state militias with the organization formally changing its name from the Arkansas State Guard to the Arkansas National Guard following the passage of the National Defense act of 1903. Arkansas National Guard troops participated in the <a href="/wiki/Mexican_Expedition" class="mw-redirect" title="Mexican Expedition">Mexican Expedition</a> in 1916–1917 and returned home briefly before being mobilized again for <a href="/wiki/World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>. When the Arkansas National Guard units were mustered into Federal Service for World War I, their state designations were removed and they were renumbered in accordance with a national System. These new Regimental numbers are still represented today in the Arkansas Army National Guard by the <a href="/wiki/153rd_Infantry_Regiment" class="mw-redirect" title="153rd Infantry Regiment">153rd Infantry Regiment</a>, formerly the 1st Arkansas Infantry, and the <a href="/wiki/142nd_Field_Artillery_Regiment" title="142nd Field Artillery Regiment">142nd Field Artillery Regiment</a>, formerly the 2nd Arkansas Infantry. </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Arkansas_National_Guard_and_World_War_II" title="Arkansas National Guard and World War II">Arkansas National Guard and World War II</a></div> <p>The Arkansas National Guard experience a massive expansion between World War I and World War II, with the first permanent armories being built and troops now directed to drill four times per month and to participate in a two-week encampment in the summers.

During the 1980s Arkansas Nation Guard units made multiple training rotations to Honduras during a period of increased Marxist activity.
