| | | Dress Blues |  | 
 |  | Bravery by winning battles The "First to Fight"
 Accomplishing the mission
 Moving to the next big adventure
 
 Sacrifice via endless challenges and training
 No room for weakness
 Setting limits and crushing them
 The change so prominent
 
 Honor through protection
 Against all who have opposed
 A permanent place in one of our histories fixtures
 Almost to a deathly extreme
 
 Not only defend but protect
 3 colors of our Nation's Flag
 A brotherhood not quite understood
 But feared nonetheless
