I will never quit. 

I will never leave a fallen comrade. 

I am disciplined, physically and mentally tough, 

trained and proficient in my warrior tasks and drills. 

I always maintain my arms, my equipment and myself. 

I am an expert and I am a professional. 

I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy
