Does the National Guard get deployed overseas? that's what it seems like on the website, but I thought they were the ones that went into riots or floods and stuff within their own state? What is that group then? Why is it called "National" Guard then? I would love to do the in-state stuff that you always see in the news, like the national guard getting people off their rooves and stuff, but I don't particularly want to go overseas....

Hey i have family in the national guard and luckily they havent gotten deployed but depending in your mos or job that you pick increases the chances of beign deployed yeah they are national they do deal with asap emergencies but also if they need an asap unit they send em oversees. For example If you are a firefighter in the guard they send you to a forest fire to help out but i doubt it they need a firefighter in iraq. If you are infantry in the guard they need infanrty men in Afghanistan or such but i doubt it they infantry to put out a fire. This is just from expirience i have from family in the guard but try contacting your local national guard recruting office to get mor information and insights of the national guard. Hope this helped!!! :D
so basically it depends on your job w/in the Nat'l guard? interesting, thanks!
