NATIONAL GUARD La National Guard (Guardia Nacional) es una organización estadounidense que recluta voluntarios no profesionales a los que se prepara para colaborar con el ejército profesional y las fuerzas aéreas en tiempos de crisis. Los requisitos para alistarse son los mismos que para el ejército normal y, aunque su preparación la dirige el gobierno federal, sus miembros pueden ser movilizados para ayudar en situaciones de emergencia, catástrofes naturales y el control de situaciones excepcionales de violencia civil. Los miembros de la National Guard tienen que prestar juramento de fidelidad a los EE.UU. y al estado al que pertenecen. NATIONAL TRUST El National Trust es una organización benéfica británica que se dedica a la conservación de lugares del patrimonio histórico-artístico o de parajes naturales. Se financia a través de donaciones, aportaciones de los socios, y dinero procedente de la venta de entradas, souvenirs y de las cafeterías o restaurantes que suele haber en muchos de estos lugares.the National Trust N — (Brit) ≈ la Dirección General del Patrimonio Nacional
