I am the Infantry.

I am my country's strength in war.

her deterrent in peace.

I am the heart of the fight-

wherever, whenever.

I carry America's faith and honor

against her enemies.

I am the Queen of Battle.



I am what my country expects me to be-

the best trained solider in the world.

In the race for victory

I am swift, determined, and courageous,

armed with a fierce will to win.



Never will I fail my country's trust.

always I fight on-

through the foe,

to the objective,

to triumph over all,

If necessary, I will fight to my death.


By my steadfast courage,

I have won 200 years of freedom.

I yield not to weakness,

to hunger,

to cowardice,

to fatigue,

to superior odds,

for I am mentally tough, physically strong,

and morally straight.



I forsake not-

my country,

my mission

my comrades,

my sacred duty.



I am relentless.

I am always there,

now and forever.

I AM THE INFANTRY!

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower

And they didn't have to use the term "warrior" even once.  Sweet.
