The National Guard was named when the reorganisation of the force under the Militia Act of 1903. The name National Guard is a bit obvious, and forces intended to be geared solely towards intra-border tasks worldwide have been dubbed National Guard. Their purpose is to guard the nation as a home grown force, first and foremost. A lot of that's changed, especially since Creighton Abrams passed the Total Force Policy in the late 1970s, but that was the purpose for its formation anyhow.
The official name for the Army & Army National Guard song is "the Army Goes Rolling Along". Please note that all regulations in the Army National Guard are the same as those in the regular Army, since the National Guard is a component of the Army.
