Real heroes wear our uniform
You’ll see no numbers, that’s the norm

They do not strive to get rich quick
Their mission firm, oh how they click

To serve us faithful is their cause
Determined minds, they’ll never pause

Sincere, they love our country true
Sleep well my friends, they serve for you

We sometimes see them on our shore
While others brave a foreign tour

So trained and drilled to do it all
In time of need they’ll meet each call

They make a total treasured sight
No finer known, a mom’s delight

God hold them safe and keep them well
Till soldiers return home to dwell
