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 commrades.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'm 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 onto
the Ranger objective and complete the mission, though I
be the lone survivor.
RANGERS LEAD THE WAY!
