I want my miners to travel down to the magma sea to make an execution pit of death, but I've ran into a problem: monsters. They maul my miners and completely decimate them. Is there a way I can have my amazing military escort them?

Station the militia at various points along the way, or have your miners carry steel picks. Picks are amazing weapons.

You could assign them war animals through v-l.
While a pack of war dogs may not kill attackers, they can distract and delay the enemy long enough for your miner to escape and your militia to arrive. Even better if its war bears or something nastier.

I have lots of dogs but no way to train them for war... how do?

Give a Dwarf animal training labours, make that Dwarf the dogs's trainer in the animal screen (z) (animals) and assign the dogs to a pasture/animal training zone (i)

Or breed bears and train the cubs.
