I壇 desire to use some with the content on my blog whether you don稚 mind. Natually I値l provide you with a link on your net blog. Thanks for sharing.

Young Jared,
I applaud your decision to enlist, and to defend this Nation. However, there is something you MUST know and MUST understand. The statement which you have is given is in fact the Army Creed. I believe this has replaced the hitherto known “CODE of CONDUCT” issued to all Officers and Enlisted men as of 1SEPT78. Closely compare the two….you will easily detect the evil which has taken place within the leadership of the Pentagon..Please read the following:

CODE OF CONDUCT
FOR MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES

GTA-21-3-1September 1978 Revision of GTA 21-50

1.I am an American fighting man.I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life.
I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
2.I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.
3.If I am captured I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.
4.If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me and will back them up in every way.
5. When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the best of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.
6. I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

You see Jared, as a soldier you have the DUTY to become informed. Obviously you can see the difference here.

Now, the Oath I swore is NOT the Oath which you have sworn. My Oath requires me to obey only the ” LAWFUL” orders of the Officers appointed over me….no UCMJ language…no regulation language…and that I will bear full truth and allegiance to the same( The Constitution ). I did not swear to obey any man as an individual,or government…even if that means I must put a sitting President, or an evil runaway Congress in chains. A reasonable man asks …Why the change? It is not hard to figure out. Treasonous criminal thugs now run OUR LAND.
Additionally, there is NO expiration for my Oath of service and I am accountable to it for each day I live. I still carry my Code of Conduct in my wallet to this very day, since it was handed to me in October of 1978 by my then First Sergeant.

May our Father bless you and yours.

I give my true name. I will not hide nor cower in fear.
Woe be unto the man who brings a fight to me.

Cole…..11BH3X.

God bless all you young soldiers. I pray you are dedicated to the Constitution and not the government. American citizens are your responsibiltiy to serve and protect, not the government. All American soldiers and law enforcment must realize our present government is , by its words and actions, illigigmate and stands in direct violation of the Constitution of The United States of America. You must use exterem caution when receiving orders from this rogue government. Americans NEVER turn on their brothers who are protecting our Constitution. Be safe my Brothers In Arms.

Respectfully,
Art Phillips

Oh my GOD, I had no idea you people existed. I just want to cry with pride and assurance that you are here and ready to fight for our country. I have been so afraid they were going to declare martial law and it would be all over for those of us who have no real means of defense. They can take any and all that we have without cause.
Thank you for being there. GOD BLESS YOU one and all and may GOD BLESS our country and preserve the Constitution and Bill Of Rights.

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.

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.
