Q
Air Force Song
A
Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Climbing high into the sun; Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At 'em now, Give 'em the gun! Down we dive, spouting our flame from under, Off with one hell of a roar! We live in fame or go down in flame. Nothing can stop the U.S. Air Force!
Brilliant minds fashioned a crate of thunder,
Sent it high into the blue;
Valiant hands blasted the world asunder;
How they lived God only knew! (God only knew!)
Boundless souls dreaming of skies to conquer
Gave us wings, ever to soar!
With scouts before and bombers galore.
Nothing’ll stop the U.S. Air Force
Here’s a toast to the host
Of those who love the vastness of the sky,
To a friend we send a message of the brave who serve on high.
We drink to those who gave their all of old,
Then down we roar to score the rainbow’s pot of gold.
A toast to the host of those we boast, the U.S. Air Force!
Off we go into the wild sky yonder, Keep the wings level and true; If you'd live to be a grey-haired wonder Keep the nose out of the blue! Fly to fight, guarding the nation's border, We'll be there, followed by more! In echelon we carry on. Nothing will stop the U.S. Air Force!

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse.

John Stuart Mill

Father Denis E. O'Brien, Sergeant, USMC Quote
"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protestor to burn the flag". Father Denis E. O'Brien, Sergeant, USMC
70
Alfred Thayer Mahan Quote
"War, once declared, must be waged offensively, aggressively. The enemy must not be fended off; but smitten down. You may then spare him every exaction, relinquish every gain, but 'til then he must be struck incessantly and remorselessly". Alfred Thayer Mahan

Integrity First
Integrity is essential. It's the inner voice, the source of self-control, the basis for trust that is imperative in today's military. Doing the right thing regardless of who is looking.
184
Service Before Self
Military service is not just another job. It's an uncommon profession that calls for people of uncommon dedication. A leader unwilling to sacrifice individual goals for the good of the unit cannot convince other unit members to do so.
185
Excellence in All We Do
Our mission often involves the risk of human life and sometimes national survival. The obligation to excel is a moral obligation for members of a professional military force.
