The U.S. Code defines the militia for the United States.
There are two types of people who are automatically members of the
U.S. Militia.
1. All able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and under 45
years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention
to become, citizens of the United States, and
2. Female citizens of the United States who are members of the
National Guard.
So, I�m sorry ladies, but according to law females are never
members of the Unorganized U.S. Militia and can only be members of
the Organized U.S. Militia through service in the National Guard.

Therefore, if you�re an able-bodied male U.S. citizen who is
between the ages of 17 and 45, then congratulations! You�re a
member of the Unorganized U.S. Militia.
