“THE VETERANS CREED”
Written in part by: MSG Charles H Harbold, U.S. Army Retired
I am an American Veteran
I am a dedicated Warrior
I have answered my nation’s call
I am an American Veteran
My mission is to Serve, Fight and Win
I am Faithful to a Proud Heritage
A Tradition of Honor
And a History of Valor
I am an American Veteran
Guardian of Freedom and Justice
My Nation’s Sword and Shield
My Nation’s Sentry and Avenger
I’ll defend my country with my life
I am an American Veteran
Dedicated Leader and Warrior
I will never leave a Veteran behind
I will never falter and I will not fail
I will never forget our POW’s and MIA’s
I will always set the example of a True
Red, White and Blue American
Follow Me
MAY GOD ALWAYS BLESS OUR VETERANS
