U.S. Infantry - Follow Me

U.S. Infantry - I am the Infantry! FOLLOW ME! Views: 1087 09/26/2015 I am the Infantry — Queen of Battle! For two centuries I have kept our Nation safe, purchasing freedom with my blood. To tyrants, I am the day of reckoning; to the suppressed, the hope for the future. Where the fighting is thick, there am I… I am the Infantry! FOLLOW ME! I was there from the beginning, meeting the enemy face to face, will to will. My bleeding feet stained the snow at Valley Forge; my frozen hands pulled Washington across the Delaware. At Yorktown, the sunlight glinted from the sword and I, begrimed and battered… saw a Nation born. Hardship...and glory I have known. At New Orleans, I fought beyond the hostile hour, showed the fury of my long rifle… and came of age. I am the Infantry. I was with Scott at Vera Cruz…hunted the guerrilla in the mountain passes… and scaled the high plateau. The fighting was done when I ended my march of many miles from the old Alamo. From Bull Run to Appomattox, I fought and bled. Both Blue and Grey were my colors then. Two masters I served and united them strong… proved that this nation could right a wrong… and long endure. I am the Infantry! FOLLOW ME! I led the charge up San Juan Hill… scaled the walls of old Tienstin… and stalked the Moro in the steaming jungle still… always the vanguard. I am the Infantry! At Chateau-Thierry, first over the top, then I stood like a rock on the Marne. It was I who cracked the Hindenburg Line… in the Argonne, I broke the Kaiser's spine… and didn't come back 'till it was "over, over there." I am the Infantry! FOLLOW ME! A generation older at Bataan, I briefly bowed, but then I vowed to return. Assaulted the African shore… learned my lesson the hard way in the desert sands… pressed my buttons into the beach at Anzio… and bounced into Rome with determination and resolve. I am the Infantry! The English Channel, stout beach defenses and the hedgerows could not hold me… I broke out at St. Lo, unbent the Bulge… vaulted the Rhine… and swarmed the Heartland. Hitler's dream and the Third Reich were dead. In the Pacific, from island to island I hopped… hit the beaches and chopped through swamp and jungle… I set the Rising Sun. I am the Infantry! In Korea, I gathered my strength around Pusan… swept across the frozen Han… outflanked the Reds at Inchon… and marched to the Yalu. FOLLOW ME! Around the world, I stand… ever forward. Over Lebanon's sands, my rifle steady aimed… and calm returned. At Berlin's gate, I scorned the Wall of Shame. I spanned the Caribbean in freedom's cause, answered humanity's call. I trod the streets of Santo Domingo to protect the innocent. In Grenada, I jumped at Salinas, and proclaimed freedom for all. My arms set a Panamanian dictator to flight and once more raised democracy's flag. In the Persian Gulf, I drew the line in the desert, called the tyrant's bluff and restored right and freedom in 100 hours. Duty called, I answered. I am the Infantry! FOLLOW ME! My bayonet… on the wings of power… keeps the peace worldwide. And despots, falsely garbed in freedom's mantle, falter… hide. My ally in the paddies and the forest… I teach, I aid, I lead. FOLLOW ME! Where brave men fight… there fight I. In freedom's cause… I die. From Concord Bridge to Heartbreak Ridge, from the Arctic to the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, to the Caribbean... and onward to the Persian Gulf... the Queen of Battle! Always ready… then, now and forever.
