Yep. And when I became a civilian and stood there I was asked to raise my right hand and declare; 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.

I thought I was reenlisting..... Many of the federal workers sadly have forgotten that oath. there is only one line that changes between me as the civilian and me the solider. I have many that have not a clue....
