32 U.S.C. § 105 — Inspection

(a) Under rules the Secretary sets, the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the Air Force must each have inspectors general (or other detailed regular officers) inspect the Army National Guard or Air National Guard to check whether: (1) its property is in satisfactory amount and condition; (2) it is organized as this title requires; (3) its members meet required physical and other qualifications; (4) it is properly uniformed, armed, equipped, trained, and instructed for active duty in the field or coastal defense; (5) its records are kept as this title requires; (6) its property and fiscal officers' accounts and records are properly maintained; (7) its units meet deployment requirements; and (8) its units and members follow federal law and policy, including policy from the Secretary of Defense, the relevant military department Secretary, or the Chief of the National Guard Bureau. (b) These inspection reports are used to decide whether the National Guard may receive and keep military property under this title, which people and groups officially count as National Guard units and members, and which units meet deployment standards. (c) The Chief of the National Guard Bureau may arrange for this kind of inspection to be done, on behalf of the Secretary of the Army or Secretary of the Air Force, by inspectors general or by detailed National Guard officers — but only with that Secretary's approval.
