What if you remove the captain from that position via the nobles screen?

After the squad has been disbanded? He properly returns to his non-military profession. The only thing this bug affects is cluttering your nobles screen if you don't take the additional step to remove the dwarf from there. Also, it seems you can appoint militia captains through the nobles screen, but they don't get actually added anywhere in the military screen.
