Please stand when the anthem of the branch of the military
in which you served is played.

Over hill, over dale, we will hit the dusty trail,
And those caissons go rolling along.
In and out, hear them shout, counter march and right about,
And those caissons go rolling along.
Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hee! in the field artillery.
Shout out your numbers loud and strong!
For where’er you go, you will always know
That those caissons are rolling along.
From the Halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli,
We will fight our country’s battles in the air, on land and sea.
First to fight for right and freedom and to keep our honor clean.
We are proud to claim the title of United States Marines.
Anchors aweigh, my boys, anchors aweigh.
Farewell to college joys, we sail at break of day, day, day, day.
Through our last night on shore, drink to the foam.
Until we meet once more, here’s wishing you a happy voyage home.
We’re always ready for the call, we place our trust in Thee.
Through surf and storm and howling gale, high shall our purpose be.
“Semper Paratus” is our guide, our fame and glory, too.
To fight, to save, to fight and die! Aye! Coast Guard we are for you!
Off we go, into the wild, blue yonder,
Climbing high into the sun.
Here they come, zooming to meet our thunder,
“At ’em boys, giv ’er the gun!”
Down we dive, spouting our flame from under,
Off with one terrible roar!
We live in fame or go down in flame.
Hey, nothing will stop the U.S. Air Force.
