    that I make this obligation freely, without any mental reservations or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the Office of (Grade) in the Army/Air National Guard of the State (Commonwealth, District, Territory) of upon which I am about to enter, so help me God.

    Edit: I’m not defending the national guard soldiers, but they DO answer directly to the president as per their oath
