I am well aware that all servicemen and women take the oath, but if you were never in the service it is unlikely that you will have done so. As to the Constitution I can highly recommend Madison's notes taken during the 1787 convention, very illuminating for a true understanding of that dociment. As to difficulty I trust this will not spoil your day, but since I met and married my good wife I have never been happier in my life.
