They are part of the _Armed Forces_, but are _not_ part of the _Militia_,
any more than the "regular Army" (Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps) are.

Exactly & I didn't mean to imply otherwise but when you posted this;
"... (or the Reserve arm of services that don't have National
Guard detachments, like the Navy) more or less does, since you're already
_voluntarily_ in Federal service..."
It appeared to me that you were overlooking the Reserve arm of services that also have NG detachments.
BTW, where does the USCG reserve figure in to this?
Most of what I've seen & heard came from the old 'SeaHunt' TV series w/ Lloyd Bridges starring as 'Mike Nelson'.
