Exclusive jurisdiction in and over any land so acquired by the United States is ceded to the United States for all purposes except the service of all civil and criminal process of the courts of this state and as provided in subsection (b) of this section; but the jurisdiction so ceded shall continue no longer than the United States owns such land.
