Today the Council of State and the Presidium of the People's Republic have agreed on legislation to formally disband the People's Militia and merge it into the regular standing army - the People's Army. The members of the former Militia are to be reorganized into the reserve and auxiliary component of the Army, handling logistics, supply and rearguard duty for the Army, but also front-line duty if the need arises.

Following the promulgation of the 8-Point Program all women in the country where given the legal right to opt-out of compulsory military service. The government also gave many incentives and new rights to mother's in an effort to increase the population and also began a campaign to encourage women to choose motherhood over military service or regular employment. As a result most women in the country have agreed to opt-out of military service, however a small number have decided to join the People's Army either as full-time soldiers or as part of the new reserve component, although men and women will still be segregated into separate units to avoid fraternization and other morale problems arising. Today training was completed for the "Nadezhda Krupskaya" 5th Rifle Division, a reserve all-female division of 15,000 which stands ready to defend the People's Republic of Velika from any enemies.
