I am so glad and proud that an organization like this has started

ArmyLogo

I proudly served in the Army for 5 years and the Army National Guard for 3. I enlisted at age 17 in March of 1982. When I gave my oath, the part about following lawful orders stuck with me. I have seen this storm brewing for over a decade. I have often wondered what our military and police would do when our government gave the order to disarm us and invoke martial law. I am so glad and proud that an organization like this has started. I fully support this organization and will do all I can to help.

God bless Oath Keepers.

Wow today is the first time I have seen your site! 11-08-09. This gives me hope for America and the Constitution. I am so very greatful that we have officers of the law and military men that understand that they cannot or should not do anything against our blessed constitution if they are told to do so. Thank you so much!

Until now, I have just been watching in horror all the freedoms that are being taken away from us and that there seemed to be nothing that we could do if they have the military and the police on their side.
