Here is a good example of the US military mind-set changing to the the UN mind-set. It also shows the conflict encounter with all US military personnel whether to pledge allegiance to the US Constitution or to the UN Charter.

In 1994, The Twenty-nine Palms Combat Survey was given the Marines who participated in one or more of the UN Operations: "Just Cause," "Desert Storm" or "Restore Hope." It was believed that this survey was research for a [Navy] commander’s master’s degree.

From the opening statement on the survey:

This questionnaire is to gather data concerning the attitudes of combat trained personnel with regards to nontraditional missions. All of your responses are confidential. Write your answers directly on the questionnaire form. In Part II, place an "X" in the space provided for your response. (Twenty-nine Palms Combat Survey)

The survey begins with the first seven questions by gathering an over-view of the social-economic backgrounds of the marines participating in the survey.

Questions 8 through 17 ask the participants their feelings of combat troops being used within the United States for an assortment of non-combat missions.

Then the survey starts with question 18 through the end with questions relating to their feelings to using US combat troops in UN operations. The questions cover topics such as whether a foreign commander should command US troops. (Remember what happened in Somalia!)

The last two questions expose the true direction our military is taking.

44. I would swear to the following code: "I am a United Nations fighting person. I serve in the forces which maintain world peace and every nation’s way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense."

45. The U.S. government declares a ban on the possession, sale transportation, and transfer of all non-sporting firearms. A thirty (30) day amnesty period is permitted for these firearms to be turned over to the local authorities. At the end of this period, a number of citizen groups refuse to turn over their firearms. Consider the following statement: I would fire upon U.S. citizens who refuse or resist confiscation of firearms banned by the U.S. government.  (Twenty-nine Palms Combat Survey)

Would this survey lead our military to take an oath to the UN which is in conflict to the oath taken to defend our Constitution.  That would be an act of treachery as PFC Michael New showed the world in 1995 when he refused an illegal order to wear the UN uniform. This order was the result of the illegal Presidential Decision Directive (PDD-25) which gives US military over to the UN in direct violation of the US Constitution.
