Lyrics
Narrator 1
That song speaks of heroes “who more than self their country loved.” From the days of our early American patriots through current conflicts, these are the men and women who have served our country in military service.
Narrator 2
We want to recognize those of you who have served, or are serving in our armed forces. And so we invite you to stand when the theme song for your branch of service is sung. Please allow us to honor you today.

Air Force!
Choir
Off we go into the wild blue yonder
Climbing high into the sun
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder
At ‘em boys, give ‘er the gun!
Down we dive, spouting our flame from under
Off with one terrible roar!
We live in fame or go down in flame
For nothing can stop the U.S. Air Force!
Narrator 1
Army!
Choir
First to fight for the right
And to build the nation’s might
And the Army goes rolling along
Proud of all we have done
Fighting till the battle’s won
And the army goes rolling along
Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hey!
The Army’s on its way
Count off the cadence loud and strong!
For where e’er we go
You will always know
That the Army goes rolling along
Narrator 1
Coast Guard!
Choir
We’re always ready for the call
We place our trust in Thee
Through surf and storm and howling gale
High shall our purpose be
“Semper Paratus” is our guide
Our fame, our glory too
To fight, to save, or fight and die!
Aye! Coast Guard, we are for you
Narrator 1
Navy!
Choir
Anchors aweigh, my boys
Anchors aweigh!
Farewell to college joys
We sail at the break of day (ay, ay, ay)
Through our last night on shore
Hail to the foam
Until we meet once more
Here’s wishing you a happy voyage home!
Narrator 1
Marines!
Choir
From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
We will fight our country’s battles
In the air, on land and seas
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean
We are proud to claim the title
Of United States Marine
Marines!
Navy!
Coast Guard!
Army!
Air Force!
Narrator 1
Let’s stand and give a hand to all our service men and women....
