Bei der großen Militärparade in Washington DC gab es auch eine Angelobung von neuen Soldaten. Eine Gelegenheit den amerikanischen Treueeid im Wortlaut zu hören.
Interessant ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass die Soldaten nicht nur den Vorgesetzten ihre Treue schwören müssen, sondern auch ausdrücklich dem Präsidenten der Vereinigten Staaten (Donald Trump), das kommt ausdrücklich im Gelöbnistext vor. Und es gibt auch eine Referenz an Gott, was für ein säkulares Land ungewöhnlich ist.
Die entsprechende Zeremonie fängt im Video ab 1:57:00 an.

During the big military parade in Washington DC, new soldiers were also sworn in. This was an opportunity to hear the wording of the American oath of allegiance.
It is interesting to note that soldiers must swear allegiance not only to their superiors, but also explicitly to the President of the United States (Donald Trump), which is explicitly stated in the oath text. There is also a reference to God, which is unusual for a secular country.
The ceremony begins at 1:57:00 in the video.
