I don't see anything in 703-304 that says a person has to retreat from their home or move to another room in the house.

I am not an attorney but just looked up the definition of dwelling and it says it  is the structure of the house. Now try to google curtilage that is not dwelling.

Please!  The Oath of Enlistment and/or Office is NOT supposed to encapsulate the "if - then - else" decision process contained in the UCMJ.  It's an oath that you make to uphold the responsibilities of your position.

The UCMJ and Code of Conduct are there to guide you in your day-to-day decisions.  The difference between a legal order, and illegal order, and the appropriate actions to take are complicated and will never be covered in any oath.

If you want to try and say "I never swore an oath to do <fill in the blank>", remember the oath is very general.  The "fine print" of what you promised is contained in the other documents.  Part of the commissioning programs is to teach candidates what is in those documents BEFORE they raise their right hand.

The oath is different from the commissioning document. 

That was the initial commission. Promotions was a single piece of paper which nullifies the previous rank. If you have that other promotion paperwork post it up. If you will blindly follow that's you brother not me.

Colt808 what oath of office did you take?  Not wanting to attack you but curious since the Navy officer oath does not have anything saying that. I have seen the guard does add that tho. There is a difference from the officer and enlisted oath of office. Which I took seriously since I saw both sides and the reasoning behind the officer oath of office. https://citizensagainstproobamamediabias.wordpress.com/2009/03/07/enlisted-vs-commissioned-military-oath-of-office/
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Uniformed_Services_Oath_of_Office don't like the guard one. From the army themselves http://www.history.army.mil/html/faq/oaths.html. Now I don't remember my commissioning paperwork but I thought it had the same thing. If need be I will pull it out.

Night sights are good but I think a light is important for pid.

I have this one https://www.narescue.com/portal.aspx?CN=0C7B51C93212 when going to the range or if I know I may be headed for trauma. This in my bag https://www.narescue.com/portal.aspx?CN=4C6BB1CFB632 all the time and an adventure medical kit guide I think in my wife's car since she carries the kids.

Damn that's nuts. Thought it was a black water convoy but there's probably be more carnage.

I'll go to the range with you and let me try my G17 to shoot some of your rounds in.....I'm real accurate. And if not I can use your ammo 

I hate the incessant calls from the NRA asking for more and more money. If you don't answer, they call back every day until you do. When I started getting calls at 7am on weekends, I had enough. I explained my membership fees was all I could do and not to call me. They didn't listen and continued to call.

I disagree that it's all about membership numbers. If that was true, they would spend their efforts getting new members, not trying to squeeze as much money as possible out of existing members. It comes down to total money raised, not membership numbers.

I got one call from them and then when they finished their schpell I told them that ah no matter how much they try to raise money nothing will change.  That the only real change will come when push goes to far and then a revolution is upon us.  He asks if I want a revolution and I say no I want peace and to not be bothered by stupidity but when push comes to shove I will be ready.  Haven't gotten a call since and love it.  Hahha

I am a NRA member though hate the constant mailings and until then the calls.

Anyone surprised?  And she's a member of the guard, an officer, I believe, sad.
