From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Virginia Defense Force (VaDF) is the official reserve of the Virginia Army National Guard, with a current enrollment of over 600 troops. The VaDF is the descendant of the Virginia State Guard and is headquartered at the Dove Street Armory in Richmond, Virginia, which also serves as an armory for several units of the Virginia Army National Guard. State law allows up to 7,800 troops to be activated in the VDF when necessary. The VaDF is all-volunteer unless activated to "State Active Duty" status by the Governor of Virginia.
