A GED or High School diploma is required to enlist. At one time, many people (including me) DID earn their GED while serving in the military.
There are GED testing services available on the internet. You can check this site for one www.acenet.edu/clll/ged/index.cfm. You can also check this site for free GED classes www.gedforfree.com/
The military used to look at a GED as a HS diploma-equivalent, but now you would be lucky to be accepted with one. In the Coast Guard, and possibly Air Force, you won't be accepted.
Yes, the Vice President does not have the authority to call the National Guard. The President is the only one who can activate the National Guard, unless a state governor requests assistance in which case the National Guard can be activated by the President.

The National Guard Ribbon, also known as the National Guard Service Ribbon, is an award presented to members of the National Guard who have completed specific service requirements, such as a period of honorable service. It is typically awarded for a minimum of one year of service and recognizes the commitment and dedication of National Guard personnel. The ribbon may be worn on uniforms as a symbol of their service and achievements within the National Guard.

Technically, one could say that all the National Guard are militia, in accordance with the Militia Act of 1903, which classes the National Guard as the Organized Militia, or one could argue that none of the National Guard fit the Constitutional definition of a militia, as they wear the uniform of the Army, and on the basis that the Total Force Policy ultimately maintains that the Regular Army, Army Reserve, and Army National Guard are one force.Whatever your stance on this matter is, all National Guard personnel are required to attend the same Basic Training and Advanced Individual Training which their counterparts in the Regular Army, Army Reserve, Air Force, and Air Force Reserve are required to attend.Some states have an auxiliary branch, known as State Guard Forces, State Defence Forces, etc. While administered under the National Guard bureau of each state, these outfits are not actually members of the National Guard.
