Where did the term "National Guard" come from?
In 1824 the Marquis di Lafayette was given a parade of honor, as he was the last living general from the War of Independence. Units of the New York Militia adopted the term National Guard after the French National Guard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lafayette_Welcoming_Parade_of_1824_%28New_York_City%29
