If you’ve ever taken the oath and really given thought to the meaning, then current events that ignore or undermine the Constitution should cause you grave concern. I’ve lived it – the American Dream!
hen Operation Iraq Freedom started I began to remember Viet Nam and how few soldier’s were more than 20 years old. I decided that if there was a way to get involved my old face would be there with our young men.

I took the Oath in September 1964, but lived the Oath through stories from my Grand-father who served in the Infantry on the Western Front during WW-1, through stories from my father who served in WW-11
I gave my oath in June 1966 and have lived by it ever since. I will continue to abide by my oath to protect the Constitution of the United States of America until I can no longer breath.

I gave my Oath in September 1972. When I was honorably discharged in 1976 I was not asked to rescind my Oath. From that time I have felt that I had a responsibility to “Protect and Defend the Constitution of the United States”.
Today my fears are that their are those who will allow the Constitution to be violated. I found out about Oath Keepers while listening to the “O’Reilly Factor”
For years my husband and I have felt the same way as the “Orders we will NOT obey” many times we have talked about what we would do if things go to hell, how we would take care of our family. I feel this is the place to start.
