Kind of like the militia of ordinary citizens that fought the most powerful army in the world to gain our independence?????????

Our National Guard.

National Guard is now part of the Army. It is no longer the citizen militia. Sorry...

Did we have a national guard in the 1700's?
We didn't.
The militia is not the national guard.
