Depends if the unit you are in is scheduled for a rotation there. With the drawdown going on, it is probably unlikely.
Added: While the above answer contains the element of truth - IF your unit of the NG is federalized, you WILL have to go wherever it is you are ordered to go.

However, since you served on active duty more than 180 days during wartime, you would be eligible to earn the same benefits of an active duty member with the same service and duty time.
