Virginia has a code on militia where all males between 18-46 are in the "unorganized militia", which is the 3rd branch of the whole Virginia militia. Other states have similar codes, but not all.
>>I don’t know where to look for case law, but I assume Black’s law dictionary would we the source for a definition.

If everyone is one, no one is. It renders the question moot (and does a better job — sometimes more is less).
Nicely researched!
I wonder it that would be a good answer for you to use — “Yes, I’m in the virginia unorganized militia, by Virginia Law”
Although maybe that counts as an “official state militia”.
