Militias or Minute Men were required to be fully devoted to military exercises, fully equipped and ready to march out at a short notice. Unlisted under the direction of field marshal, they were to equal one quarter of the entire militia, and to be divided into separate companies of about fifty men each. The privates chose the captains and the captains were to divide the groups into battalions. The captains were then to chose the field marshals.
