I promise all of you, My Life, My Fortune and My Sacred Honor

unitlogo Today, just after I checked out what was going on in the Oath Keepers web site, I decided to take a drive to Valley Forge National Park and all I was going to do was drive thru just to think about things and the way they are. For some reason I found myself parking at the headquarters of George Washington and felt the need to exit my truck and take a walk. Its cold here today but not as cold as it was in 1776 when our troop were here ready to fight the British army. Anyway, as I walked toward the building I started to think about whats happening today in our republic and thought that it isn`t to much a difference between then and now, and then it started to snow. What a feeling I got at that very moment and I started thinking about all of the freedom loving people who are right now involved with restoring our republic. We continue the fight to keep us a free country and I want to say how proud I am to be an American and a part of Oath Keepers and I know that there is a force that is with each and every one of us who follow in the foot steps of all who served and those who sacrificed everything for this thing we call freedom. Let us not give up the fight for our country and the country we want to leave our children, so I promise all of you, My Life, My Fortune and My Sacred Honor.

Thank You and God Bless All of You

Semper Fi, and I stand with you, We will never give up! But my understanding in the teaching in the public schools today might just stop our grandchildren from feeling the same! Let us hope they never forget!

To William B.
With all due respect sir, it is our responsiblity as parents and grandparents to insure that our children learn of our Constitution and the great Americans that have died in defense of it. This responsibity can longer be left to “educators” aka the mindless drones whose job it is to indoctrinate our this nation’s youth into the latest socialist republic.

I didn’t live through the Great Depression or WWII like my mother but I have learned through her, valuable lessons like “we have to always look after and take great care of our Vets (WWII) If it weren’t for them, we would all be speaking German.” Additionally, she also taught my six siblings and I that “credit is going to kill this country — you don’t spend money that you don’t have.” These life lessons (among others) were taught to me by her and not delegated because she had my best interests at heart and wanted to make sure that NOTHING WAS LOST IN TRANSLATION. Anything I feel my children MUST know (how money works, why you can’t trust politicians, the fact that NOTHING is free, WHY WE ARE PATRIOTS and most importantly WHY WE MUST KNOW AND UNDERSTAND WHAT THE US CONSTITUTION MEANS) will come from me. Who better to teach them than a natural-born, tax-paying, patriotic member of the US Citzenry?

PLEASE DONATE AND SUPPORT OUR EFFORTS
Oath Keepers is growing FAST, but like General Patton, we are outpacing our own supply lines. Your donations are "fuel" for our advance!

Veterans, you swore an Oath...

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.

Officers Oath

Your Oath NEVER expires! It's time to keep it!

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.
