Quite frequently, especially in the last nine years. The National Guard is always present at any civil crisis in the US, and, ever since the Total Force Policy went into effect in 1976, have been subject to widescale deployment, the same as the regular forces. National Guard units made up a significant portion of the US force in Desert Storm. Force 2000 began rotating National Guard units into peacekeeping/presence missions, such as those in Bosnia and Kosovo. And the last few years of the war in Iraq have seen times when the number of National Guard soldiers in-country have surpassed the number of regulars.

What is used as the state militia today?

Today, the state militia in the United States is primarily represented by the National Guard. The National Guard serves as a reserve military force that can be mobilized for federal missions or state emergencies, such as natural disasters or civil unrest. Each state maintains its own National Guard units, which operate under both state and federal authority. Additionally, some states may have other organized militia groups, but the National Guard is the most recognized and widely used state militia today.

What is the same between the army and the National Guard?

The differences are pretty widespread. The Regular Army (active Army) is a fully federal, full time force. The National Guard, on the other hand, has a state role, as well as a federal role, and is composed of part-time soldiers. Since the National Guard serves in the role of the state militia, they are permitted to be used in law enforcement activities when activated at state level, whereas the Regular Army cannot be used for domestic law enforcement duties unless the Insurrection Act is invoked.
