NG soldiers are subject to UCMJ action. Depending on whether or not the soldier is on Title 32 (state) or 10 (federal) orders will determine who pursues the action.

If the soldier was on federal orders at time the crime was committed the Army can order him back to AD for punishment; if he was simply a drilling (M-day) soldier at the time of the offense it will fall on the Florida NG's shoulders to prosecute the guy.

Title 10 vs 32 stuff gets quite confusing even for those who deal with it day-in and day-out...

Hope this makes things clear as mud.

ETA: seems I said little more than JAGO...
