How does the US National Guard deploy? I always understood it to be made up of a group of people basically on call that then report to their base in your city and then go out from there. Am I wrong?

Individual guardsmen also volunteer to deploy. My cousin is in the national guard and volunteered for two tours of duty. His day job is a nurse at a level one trauma center in Chicago so he felt those skills would be useful in a war zone.
