Veterans Defending Democracy
Support and Defend
“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. So help me God.”
(Title 10, US Code; Act of 5 May 1960 replacing the wording first adopted in 1789, with amendment effective 5 October 1962).

OUR MISSION AND VISION
Who We Are
Support & Defend is a multi-generational, multi-service organization of San Antonio Veterans who are dedicated to supporting and defending the Constitution. We hold a variety of political views but we agree on this: We are using our trusted status as Veterans to talk to our communities and our military about current misuse of the military and the right to refuse unlawful orders. We need you to join us and amplify our message.
