In 1986, President Ronald Reagan appointed him as Chief of the National Guard Bureau, overseeing more than half a million Army and Air Guardsmen nationwide.

The NCO Club, also known as Parker Hall, has been a gathering place at Camp San Luis Obispo since 1971. Its origins date back to 1967 when Battery C, 144th Field Artillery, established one of the first clubs on post to serve soldiers and their families. Over the years, the Club has relocated, expanded, and modernized, with support from the Sergeants Major Association of California and the California Military Department. Dedicated in honor of Command Sergeant Major Hester Parker, the facility continues to carry forward its legacy of service and camaraderie.
