I was more interested in your second paragraph above. That the citizen militia is still recognized as a legal entity. That's a different document, right?
I don't know how to research this. I think it is in statute somewhere, in the same place that defines the citizen militia to consist of all those able-bodied between the ages of 18 and 45. I seem also to recall that the "militia" can be categorized into 3 bodies. The conventional National Guard is one. The citizen militia is another. And there is some intermediate body inbetween. I apologize for the sketchiness of my recollection.
