OATH FOR MEMBERS OF THE MILITIA
I am an American, serving with
the unorganized civilian militia which guards my homeland, state, and
the constitutions thereof.
I am prepared to give my life in
their defense.
I will never surrender of my own
free will.
If in command, I will never
surrender the members of my command while they have the means to resist.
If I am captured,
I will continue to resist by all means
possible.
I will make every effort to escape,
and aid others to escape.
I will accept neither parole,
leniency, or any special favors by the enemy.
If I become a POW,
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 in command, I will strive to
maintain morale of those under my command.
If not in command, I will obey the
lawful orders of those appointed over me.
When questioned as a POW, I am
bound to give only name, rank, and date of birth.
I will evade answering any
further questions to the best of my ability.
I will make no oral or written
statements disloyal to my beloved homeland and its citizens, or harmful to their
continuing struggle for freedom as prescribed by the Constitution of the United
States.
In all cases, I will endeavor to
instruct and inform members of the unorganized militia units, seeking
to persuade them to join the Patriot struggle; urging them for justice and
conscience sake to return America to the Constitutional Republic our forefathers
envisioned.
I will never forget that I am an
American, a citizen of the greatest nation on Earth, fighting for freedom,
responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made this
country free.
I will place my trust in God, the
Constitution of United States of America, and the loyalty of her people.
