However, as a Veteran, I must state that it is not the Military that protects the Rights of people who live in the United States; it is The Constitution of the United States that protects those Rights. We, as Veterans, are the Defenders of the Constitution. Upon Enlistment into the Armed forces of the United States, we swear to defend the Constitution against all Enemies, Foreign, and Domestic. It is an Oath not to be taken lightly; nor should it be misunderstood, or misinterpreted.
I took it. I still uphold it.
Thanks for your salute, 79th FG, it is returned.
