When I joined the military, my first order I received was “to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America”. This I’m sure sounds familiar to many of you out there.

I remember when I was asked to take that step forward.As young as I was, I knew this was a very proud moment,and a lot of responsibility had been placed on my shoulders.

I was first sworn in on 5DEC68 at the Federal Building in Buffalo,NY. It was my first real world commitment. I was worried at the time, because they made a young man with an artificial leg go through the whole physical.

I took my oath to defend this country against all enemies both foreign and domestic and to protect the constitution 29 years ago. It was when I enlisted in the U. S. Army.

I am an OATH KEEPER. Have been since first taking the OATH in December 1959 at the time I joined the U.S. Air Force. I urge all Oath Keepers to do something to promote the OATH KEEPERS ORGANIZATION everyday.

I, LT Stanley A. Tarrant do solemnly swear my allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America and the principles that made my country free. I swear no allegiance to any man, or government and will not follow any orders to:

I took my oath to uphold and defend the Constitution and the American people in July of 1994. And after serving 8 yrs of active duty

President of Gun Owners of Nevada “I took the Oath. And I meant it.”

As a free American citizen, Christian, a 20 years plus military Veteran, and a two year combat Vietnam Vet, I pledged my allegiance to an Oath a long time ago, and I still live by that to this day.

In March of this year, I watched a video of an active duty Marine who’s comments stirred me deeply, as they have many who’ve watched those videos and through contact with that Marine, I came to know about Oath Keepers and subsequently joined. It was my privilege to receive my “Associate Member” certificate !!

I grew up in Montana and enlisted at the age of 16 in 1972 but had to wait until I turned 17 to go to boot at Fort Ord. I swore in on the morning of my 17th Birthday and still remember swearing the oath to protect our Great country

Oath Keepers would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We hope you and your family have a holiday season filled with joy and happy memories.

You’ve heard of Christmas in July… Here is a video from some of the Oath Keepers at one of their 4th of July celebrations in 2009. Enjoy. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

I see no conflict with the oath I that was administered and the Oath of the Oath Keepers, nor do I have a problem with the Oath that contains the phrase …”obey the orders of the President of the United States…” for adherence to this part of the Oath would require that the orders be “lawful.”

I know that I am biased about the Oath and do not regret being so, but those of us whom were raised early on having to recite the pledge of allegiance and sing the national anthem and America the beautiful before class began in elementary school

I was proud to get my degrees and support my family by working and not living off the state or federal government. I am proud of my two children who did not join the service, and of my three children who also signed on the dotted line to join the Marines.

I was knocked out of my socks when I first found out about OK. Its a Good thing for this organization to stand up to to the evil that is impossing itself on the American people.
