THE RANGER 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 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 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, 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 on to the
           Ranger objective and complete the mission, though I be the lone survivor.
                            RANGERS LEAD THE WAY
