There is a possibility of you being deployed if you join any component or branch of the military. This includes Reserve components, the National Guard, and even the Coast Guard. National Guard and Reserve units have been very active in Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, and OIF, largely due to the Total Force Policy implemented by General Creighton Abrams, and the Pennsylvania National Guard has seen combat service during this time.

Civilians can get onto post. National Guard members can get onto post. However, being in the National Guard will not get you access to restricted access installations. For example, access to Cheyenne Mountain is very strictly controlled, and being in the National Guard without a legitimate reason for being there will not get you access.
