We took oaths both in the Army and the Police Agencies

As an honorably discharged Vietnam Vet/Disabled police officer, I swear to keep my oaths.

I served with the Engineers in Vietnam 70/71 and took my Oath at an Affees station in the Midwest, then served eight years after Nam with the Army, and twenty years thereafter on the Police Department.

We took oaths both in the Army and the Police Agencies where I worked, both required an allegiance to the Constitution of the United States.

Now I hear that our new President wishes the Troops to swear not allegiance to the Constitution, but to the President of the United States!!

Soon he will have them saying Heil Obama!

I will, if called upon, defend our Constitution if I have to crawl up on them and bite them on their ankles. We who have served and fought in our nations past TWO major wars, in Korea and Vietnam, know that we fought and KILLED communists, now our leaders are pushing us closer and closer to a totalitarian government that wishes to care for us from the cradle to the grave. These were the plans of Marx and Lenin, and moved forward by Stalin.

Ready to stand tall, shoulder to shoulder

Request permission to come aboard sir.

I am prior service, starting off in Air Force, and winding up in Army during Vietnam, and then many years with The Georgia Army National Guard. I am also prior service Law Enforcement, mainly with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Today, I stand ready to honor the Oath I have taken a number of times during my lifetime, to defend OUR country, The United States of America, The Constitution of the United States of America, and The Citizens of The United States of America, from enemies both foreign and domestic.

Today we have enemies on both sides of the border who are prepared and actively engaged in destroying the United States of America, both physically and economically. Sorry to say, we do not have to look far to find these enemies on either front.

I have spent years living by my oath, as I have found it did not terminate with my return from active duty military, and carried forth in everything I have done in the Civilian environment.

I found my position in law enforcement very similar to that of the active military, as we fought the battle against organized crime and international narcotics smuggling, at least in military tactical operations, we had a pretty good idea of who the enemy was, but in both the battle against organized crime and international smuggling, the enemy could be on either side of the fence, and possibly within our own ranks.

There are a whole lot of prior service folks here in Georgia who are ready to stand tall, shoulder to shoulder, and keep our Oath to defend our country and the Constitution under which our country has been formed and by which we all have lived for the past couple hundred years.

Staying true regardless of consequences

In 1962 at the ripe old age of 17yrs, I convinced my mother that military service was more important than school and she relented and signed for me to enlist in the army. I still remember taking the oath in Cleveland, OH. It was the proudest moment of my life. My intention was to make a career of the Army.

After basic I was sent to the First Infantry Division at Fort Riley Kansas. Because of the racial tensions at that time we started training for riot control. I was shocked as was my fellow soldiers to what the government

(DOD) expected us to do to control the American people in a time of riots or rebellion.

We were told that we risked prison if we didn't follow "Orders". We agreed that some of those "Orders" would NOT be obeyed by any of us against our own people even if it meant prison.

We all felt that we enlisted to protect the American people. So I know what the government is capable of. I chose not to reenlist in 1965 but I have never forgotten what Washington expected of the military. I truly loved the Army and I am proud of my service to my country but I joined to be a Patriot not a Traitor. I am just about the same size now and keep myself in good condition and I do keep and bear arms and ammunition because I understood that someday I might have to fight the very ones who would have me harm Americans.

God Bless America and God Bless The Oath Keepers!

Shoulder to shoulder

I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic....I am with you brothers, shoulder to shoulder.
