Oath of Office?

[MSgt Van]

Yep. It was listed as a civil service position of some sort, so I had to hoist the right hand and swear an oath.

An oath should not be entered into lightly. Like the oath to support and defend the Constitution or an oath of marriage, it should only have to be said once.

Do you feel the same way about the Pledge of Allegiance?

Marriage, all depending on whether or not you renew your vows at some point 
As someone has pointed out (and posted video links to) RM officers say the oath at every promotion. I've seen it myself, in person.

I don't think the word "hokey" is at all inappropriate, but if you prefer, substitute; "Corny".

Never said innappropriate. It was more of a random musing which made its way to the keyboard and forum. Plus, hokey, as a word, is hokey- it describes itself

People reaffirm their marriage vows all the time...

Yeah, but renewing your marriage vows is about the same as your membership in CAP.  You just swipe the credit card again...

The first of four versions of the POA was written by a Socialist named Francis Bellamy. The pledge was written for children's indoctrination purposes, and is the equivalent of the "Now I lay me down to sleep" prayer. I don't have to swear allegiance to a flag because I have sworn a holy blood oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Not necessarily.  I was promoted 5 times after I was commissioned and never repeated my commissioning oath or my initial enlistment oath.

Wow!!! I am impressed.  Is it anything like the oath the RM use?

Not that I've ever seen.
