US v. Miller does discuss "participation" in a "well regulated militia". The problem is that Miller is talking about the weapon's participation. Miller says, fairly directly, that if the weapon is used by the military (militia), the weapon is protected via the 2nd for individual ownership. I'm not suggesting that you are unfamiliar with Miller. Every time this crap pops up on Volokh, someone has to be reminded that the finding in Miller is that since the court could not find judicial notice that a short barreled shotgun was in regular use by the military, that a short barreled shotgun was therefore not protected by the 2nd.
