Thank you for your service to the people of this nation in defense of liberty. My father was a Marine Corps veteran of the 2nd Nicaraguan Campaign in 1928. Semper Fi, Marine! And may God bless.

Thank you, sir, for your service and sharing your way with words. I wonder if Obama or Gates or Napolitano has bothered to answer you yet? My father is a USMC vet but he has not yet connected the dots so I am grateful for your understanding of what’s going on and your support. God bless.

Took my oath with the Corps in 1965, took my first oath as a Texas Peace Officer in 1970 in Garland. I hold both oaths sacred and neither expired when I hung up my badge. They are as much a part of me today as they were then.

God Bless America God Bless Texas

Semper Fi.

I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

Site Dedication

This site is dedicated to the memory of John William Adams (1925-2006), Marine and Oath Keeper extraordinaire.

John Adams, at the age of 16, lied about his age to join the Marines so he could fight against Imperial Japan in the Pacific. His enlistment date was December 10, 1941, just three days after the attack on Pearl Harbor (see below). As a Marine rifleman, he fought the Japanese from island to island, across the pacific, including at Iwo Jima. We may have good men, but we never had better.

Until his death in 2006, he was a dedicated patriot who still took his oath to defend the Republic deadly serious. May God grant you the courage to do likewise.
