The District of Columbia Army National Guard is the Army component of the District of Columbia National Guard. As the District of Columbia is a federal district and not a state, the guard is placed under the authority of the President of the United States, unlike most other National Guard units which are headed by their state's governor.

Calling the military staff as "military bureaucracy" is correct only semantically.

There is a huge difference between the civilian bureaucracy and the military staff. They are trained differently and they have different service rules. Soldiers obey the chain of command, not the "bureaucracy". The bureaucracy orders nobody in the military, they only function as the gears and the grease to keep the paperwork happening and support the functioning of the military. They do not order the military.

The ONLY bureaucracy that orders the military to do something, is the one that the commander in chief puts into place.

You might point out that this is the national guard and not the military, but the DC national guard is unique, in that it works in the national capital region. Hence, they are DIRECTLY under the command of the president. Not the chief of defence staff, not the mayor of DC, not the congress, not the senate, not the judiciary. If CIC wants, he can use the DC national guard, as he sees fit.
