Veterans Who Get a GRIP, Receive $1,000

Montana National Guard recognizes their best recruiters are veterans

By Denise Rivette

In October 2023, a new Montana National Guard enlistment incentive program took effect. This program, known as the Guard Referral Incentive Program (GRIP), provides $1,000 payments to honorably discharged veterans who refer someone to the Montana National Guard. Payments will only be made once a referred individual enlists.

"We recognize that veterans are our best recruiters, being able to speak directly to potential recruits about their time in service. The GRIP program allows us to support conversations like these and demonstrate the importance of veteran referrals to the strength of our National Guard," stated Major General Pete Hronek, Montana Adjutant General.

Uncle Sam wants you, honorably discharged veterans, to heed the call to service once again to drain the GRIP fund as quickly as possible!
