United States Army

Read the following of what our United States Army Soldiers promise to do for all of us. Notice the phrase, "I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy the enemies of the United States of America in close combat". Puts chill bumps on me. Such courage and dedication. God bless them and thank you, everyone!
