In the military screen (m), you can set the preferred weapon, armor and shield for each dwarf, whether or not they're currently drafted into the military. An alternative method which achieves the same result is to view a dwarf and use the preferences - soldiering and hunting.
When a dwarf is drafted into the army he will go pick up his equipment, if it is available (a dwarf set to fight with a sword will fight unarmed until a sword is forged), and when he is released back to civilian life he will drop his equipment. Exceptions being dwarves with the 'Woodcutter' labour enabled who carry an axe while in civilian mode, and dwarves with the 'Hunting' labour enabled who carry a crossbow and leather armour while in civilian mode.
Miners set to fight unarmed will use their pick as a weapon, and get damage bonuses from their Mining skill level [Verify].
When a squad is drafted you get additional options in the military screen, "View Squad", which allows you to set the amount of food and water the squad members carry, among other things.
