  • Naval militias were started in the 1800s, after naval numbers started shrinking post-Civil War. At their height, there were 30. Now, there are only three, and New York's is one of them.
    “We actually have more coastline than most other states. People don't think about that," said Capt. Jay Dutcher. "But (you have) Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, the St. Lawrence Seaway, Lake Champlain, the Hudson and, of course, Long Island.”

    For those wondering naval militias are constitutionally authorized forces, with the same legal status as the National Guard (state land militia)

    In case anyone is wondering , Ohio and Alaska are the other two states with active Naval Militias. New Jersey has an inactive one. Two other states, California and Texas have a maritime component as part of of their State Guard.

      YES in my State we only as far As I know Have CG axillary. But it's their own personal water craft that Patrol. They can go out on water anytime they want, they just check in with the sector. Mostly they TEACH boater certified cards. And do safety 🛟 inspection if a person asks.

      You know the militias historically coordinated with and cooperated with regular troops right? Who do you think was in charge of calling up and directing the militia? It wasn’t a directionless mob. They had a chain of command an took orders from continental officers.

      That's what a militia traditionally is - a local, government-regulated reserve force. The name National Guard was given originally to the New York State Militia by the Marquis de Lafayette when he returned to the U.S. Also, the National Guard emblem is the statue of Capt. Parker the Concord Militia that belonged to the Massachusetts Colony.
