Lots of brave men and women gave an awful lot to get us the freedoms we hold dear. The "oath of service" is to the Constitution, not any one man or group of men. It calls us to defend that document and concept from all enemies both foreign and domestic.
Some folks fight on the front lines and those that do, raise their right hand and swear the oath. Other folks fight on the "streets" and those that do so may not actually swear the oath in the same way. But to both groups that "old piece of parchment" and the ideas it contains is what burn in both groups hearts.
