The Airborne Creed

I am an Airborne trooper, A paratrooper!
I jump by parachute from any plane in flight.
I volunteered to do it, knowing well the hazards off my choice.
I serve in a mighty airborne force, famed in deeds in war and renowned for readiness in peace.
I pledge to uphold its honor and prestige in all I am and all I do.
I am an elite trooper, a sky trooper, a shock trooper, a spearhead trooper. I blaze the way to far flung goals behind, before, above the foe's front line. I know that I have to fight without support for days on end.
Therefore, I keep mind and body always fit to do my part in any airborne task I am self reliant and unafraid.
I shoot true, and march fast and far. I fight hard and execute in every art and artifice of war I never fail a fellow trooper.
I cherish as a sacred trust the lives of the men with whom I serve.
Leaders have my fullest loyalty, and those I lead never find me lacking.
I have pride in the Airborne!
I never let it down. In peace, I do not shirk the dullest duty nor protest the toughest training.
My weapons and equipment are always combat ready.
I am neat of dress, military in courtesy, proper in conduct and behavior.
In battle, I fear no foe's ability, nor under estimate his prowess, power and agility.
I fight him with all my might and skill ever alert to evade capture or escape a trap.
I never surrender, though I may be the last. My goal in peace and war is to succeed in any mission of the day or die if it needs be in the try.
I belong to a proud and glorious team, the Airborne, the Army, my Country.
I am its chosen pride to fight where others my not go to serve them well until the final victory.
I am a trooper from the sky!
I am my nations best! In peace and war I never fail.
Anywhere, anytime, in anything,

I am the Airborne!
