Before we kick off this article, let me take a moment to recognize Veteran’s Day. All service members, past and present, active duty or reservist, have sworn the following oath (or a similar variation thereof):
The Oath of Enlistment (for enlisted):
“I, _____, 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.
