Mike, no they were not.  The NG units called into Active Duty during the KW were from all segments of  the Army National Guard from most States.  The only NG Infantry Divisions ordered into Active Duty on 1 Sept 50 were the 28th, 40th, 45th, and Alabama NG (can't recall the Numerical Designation).  The 28th (PA) and 31st  (Ala?)  were eventually sent to Europe while the 40th (CA) and 45th (OK) were sent to Japan and eventually into Korea. ( I was a 45th Thunderbird myself)
