These freedoms belong to all American

Logo3USAF I remember like it was yesterday that I took a bus to Syracuse,NY to take my oath to defend this country. That was July 27,1964. I served in the USAF till July 26 1968. I was scared back then on that first bus trip away from home at 17; but not as scared as I am now. I wasn’t as scared going to Viet Niam as I am now. I served in the 377th CSG at Ton Son Nhut AB,Siagon.

I’m not scared for me as I am for my children ,grandchildren and great grandchildren. I will do what ever I can to defend this country so my family can enjoy the freedoms that I had growing up even if it means giving up my life for them. They deserve the same rights and freedoms I had. These freedoms belong to all American; not just the idiots in Washington.

I will fight along side all Oath Keepers so help me GOD! Thank you for letting me be a member and I look forward to bringing our country back to the great country she once was and to keep the oath I took 46 years ago.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!!

Please donate and support Oath Keepers mission, every little bit helps!

Welcome to OK! This is a very diverse group of folks with the Oath being our common denominator. “Against all enemies, foreign and domestic, SO HELP ME GOD.”

You couldn’t find anybody at the bus station to comfort you?

Welcome to OK. Don’t pay much attention to Buck. We use folks like him to let us know we are on the right path. If Buck is upset enough to insult us, you know we are doing something right!

To “These freedoms belong to all American:”

Thanks for joining OK.

You should “completely” ignore all posts that come from insane asylum patients that appear on OK blogs. You must remember that the web has all kinds of individuals that weren’t able to pass the entrane test to get into preschool.

You will find an abundance of intelligent people in OK that you can relate to.

Best regards to you.

If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace. -- Thomas Paine

"Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.” -- Thomas Paine

Veterans, you swore an Oath...

Oath of Enlistment

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

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; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God

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.
