U.S. Army Rangers
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
"esprit de corps" of the 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 farther, 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, my neatness of dress and care for
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.
R
eadily will I display the intestinal fortitude required
to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the
mission, though I be the lone survivor.
