United states against all enemies, foreign and defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. The constitution of the United States. Against all enemies foreign. Then the constitution of the United States. I can support and defend the constitution of the United States against all war. And defend the constitution of the united state. And defend the constitution of the United States. As american soldiers, weve all taken this oath. We sworn allegiance not to a king, not even to the president. Weve pledged our support to the constitution. This remarkable document was drafted and signed here in Independence Hall, the old Pennsylvania State house in philadelphia, during the summer. Of 1787.
