CCE VETERANS DAY

Thank You, Soldiers

When I lay my head down every night

And go to sleep in peace

I can stay there knowing all is well

While you’re standing on your feet.

Keeping watch protecting shore to shore

In the air and oceans, too

Defending freedom at all cost

For the red, white, and the blue.

Thank you, oh thank you

Men and women brave and strong

To those who served so gallantly

We sing this grateful song.

To the soldiers who have travelled on

To countries far and near

In peace and war you paid the price

For the cause you hold so dear.

That we may wake each morning bright

And know that freedom rings

Because of your great sacrifice,

Your country joins to sing.

Thank you, oh thank you

Men and women brave and strong

To those who served so gallantly

We sing this grateful song.

Thank you, oh thank you

Men and women brave and strong

To those who served so gallantly

We sing this grateful song.

Armed Forces Medley

(Air Force)

Off we go into the wild blue yonder

Climbing high into the sun

Here they come, zooming to meet our thunder

At ‘em boys, give ‘er the gun

Down we dive, spouting our flame from under

Off with one terrible roar

We live in fame or go down in flame

Hey! Nothing can stop the US Air Force

(Army)

First to fight for the right

And to build the nation might

And the Army goes rolling along.

Proud of all we have done

Fighting till the battle’s won

And the Army goes rolling along

Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hey! The army’s on its way

Count off the cadence loud and strong-… 2, 3, 4!

For where ‘er we go, you will always know

That those caissons are rolling along

(Navy)

Anchors aweigh my boys, anchors aweigh

Farewell to college joys

We sail at break of day, day, day, day

Through our last night on shore

Anchors aweigh, until we meet once more

Here’s wishing you a happy voyage home

(Coast Guard)

We’re always ready for the call

We place our trust in thee

Through surf and storm and howling gale

High shall our purpose be

“Semper Paratus” is our guide

Our fame our glory, too

To fight, to save, or fight and die!

Aye! Coast guard, we are for you

(Marines)

From the halls of Montezuma

To the shores of Tripoli

We fight our country’s battles

In the air, on land, and sea

First to fight for right and freedom

And to keep our honor clean;

We are proud to claim the title
