“I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign, and domestic . . .”
This is the first line of the oath taken by service members upon enlistment and reenlistment in the United States Armed Forces. Our “Her Story” event will be based on this oath and the many rights that are protected by the Constitution, such as the right to vote.
A panel of BMCC women student veterans will explore and share their personal experiences and what it means to them to have defended these rights.
