Our mission
FOCS brings eligible Americans together through constitutional and civic education, fellowship, responsible citizenship, and service to community.
Our founding
The Order was founded July 4, 2026, in Abington Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania—an area connected to the 1777 Battle of Edge Hill during the Philadelphia Campaign.
Our structure
The National Order oversees State Commands and chartered local Companies. Local bodies remain subordinate to National governing documents and policy.
Faith and conscience
Members believe in God, a Supreme Being, or a universal Creator. No particular denomination or creed is required, and lawful religious liberty and conscience are respected.
FOCS has no governmental authority. It is not a militia, paramilitary force, political party, law-enforcement agency, security organization, governmental body, or substitute for public authorities. Membership, titles, uniforms, insignia, and Minuteman recognition grant no police, military, security, emergency, or governmental authority.
