New Jersey's first drill instructor Staff Sgt. Seth Greer, center, addresses a group of recruits at the Recruit Sustainment Program at the National Guard Training Center located at Sea Girt, N.J., April 17, 2010. The once-a-month program exists to prepare new recruits to ship off for eight weeks of basic training at an out-of-state military installation. Every new member of the Army National Guard must complete basic training before they go on for additional training to learn a military skill. If they don't graduate from basic training, they can't stay in the Guard. Nearly 95 percent of the recruits the Jersey Guard sends to basic training graduate. Greer's sole job in working with recruits is to make sure they're ready for the rigors of basic training. Greer joined the Army in 1997 and served four years on active duty before joining the National Guard full time.
