Ranger
creed
Recognizing
that I volunteered as a Ranger, fully knowing
the hazards of my chosen profession, I will
always endeavor to uphold the prestige, honor,
and high ”esprit de corps” of my
Ranger Regiment.
Acknowledging
the fact that a Ranger is a more elite soldier
who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by
land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as
a Ranger my country expects me to move further,
faster and fight harder than any other soldier.
Never
shall I fail my comrades. I will always keep
myself mentally alert, physically strong and
morally straight and I will shoulder more than
my share of the task whatever it may be. One
Hundred-percent and then some.
Gallantly
will I show the world that I am a specially
selected and well-trained soldier. My courtesy
to superior officers, neatness of dress and
care of equipment shall set the example for
others to follow.
Energetically
will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall
defeat them on the field of battle for I am
better trained and will fight with all my might.
Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never
leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands
of the enemy and under no circumstances will
I ever embarrass my country.
Readily
will I display the intestinal fortitude required
to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete
the mission, though I be the lone survivor.
Rangers
Lead the Way!
