I am the Guard. was with Washington in the wilderness, fought the wily warrior, and watched the dark night bow to the morning. At Concord's bridge, I fired the fateful shot 'heard 'round the world.' I bled on Bunker Hill. My foot prints marked the snow at Valley Forge. I pulled a muffled oar on the barge that, bridged the icy Delaware. . I stood with Washington on the sun-drenched heights of Yorktown. I saw the sword surrendered ... I AM THE GUARD. I pulled the trigger that loosed the long rifle's havoc at New Orleans these things I knew I was there! The hill at San Juan felt the fury of my charge. The far plains and mountains of the Philippines echoed to my shout ... I AM THE GUARD. The dark forests of the Argonne blazed with my barrage. Chateau Thierry crumbled to my cannonade. Under the arches of victory I marched in legion I was there! . . . I AM THE GUARD. I bowed briefly on grim Corregidor, then saw the light of liberation shine on the faces of my comrades. Through the jungle and on the beaches, I fought the enemy, beat, battered and broke him. I raised our banner to the serene air on Okinawa I was there! . . . I AM THE GUARD. Soldier in war, civilian in peace ... I am the Guard. I was at Johnstown, where the raging waters boomed down the val ley. I cradled the crying child in in my arms and saw the terror leave her eyes. I moved through the smoke and flames at Texas City. The stricken knew the comfort of my skill. I dropped the food that fed the starving beast on the frozen fields of the West and through the towering drifts I ploughed to rescue the marooned. I have faced forward to the tornado, the typhoon, and the horror of tne hurricane these things I know I was there! ... I AM THE GUARD. I have brought a more abundant, a fuller, a finer life to our youth. Wherever a strong arm and valiant spirit must defend the nation, in peace or war, wherever a child cries, or a woman weeps in time of disaster, there I stand ... I AM THE GUARD. For three centuries a soldier of war, a civilian in peace of security and honor, I am the custodian, now and forever . .
