In the land where eagles soar,

Where freedom's banner proudly waves,

There lies a spirit, strong and pure,

Born of valor, the land it saves.

From the earliest days, they stood,

Men and women brave and true,

Called by duty, understood,

To protect the red, white, and blue.

On fields of battle, they have fought,

With courage burning in their hearts,

Facing danger, never caught,

Their resolve, it never departs.

From Bunker Hill to Gettysburg,

Through the smoke and cannon's roar,

They stood tall, with nerves of steel,

For liberty, they gave it all and more.

In the trenches of World War I,

They charged into the face of fear,

Through the tears and through the grime,

Their spirits never disappeared.

In the skies of World War II,

They flew with wings of liberty,

Over the oceans, through the storms,

Fighting for justice and unity.

In the jungles of Vietnam,

They marched through darkness, thick and deep,

With honor etched upon their souls,

They fought a battle that would never sleep.

From the deserts of the Middle East,

To the mountains of Afghanistan,

They answer the call, without retreat,

Defending freedom, hand in hand.

With every conflict, every war,

They bear the weight of freedom's pride,

For their sacrifice, we must adore,

Their unwavering spirit, far and wide.

They stand as one, the guardians true,

On land, at sea, and in the air,

Their dedication, forever due,

For America, they truly care.

For in their veins, a love runs deep,

For the land they proudly serve,

Their unwavering promise they keep,

To protect and to preserve.

So let us honor these brave souls,

Who wear the uniform with pride,

For their courage and sacrifice,

Let our gratitude be their guide.

For American military pride,

Runs deep within each beating heart,

A symbol of strength, side by side,

A testament that shall never depart.

In times of peace, in times of strife,

Their unwavering spirit remains,

A beacon of hope, a shining light,

Guiding us through triumphs and pains.

So raise the flag, let it unfurl,

In the land where eagles soar,

For American military pride,

Shall forever endure and more.
