Service in the 160th is a calling only a few will answer, for the mission is constantly demanding and hard. And when the impossible has been accomplished, the only reward is another mission that no one else will try. As a member of the Night Stalkers, I am a tested volunteer, seeking only to safeguard the honor and prestige of my country, by serving the elite Special Operations Soldiers of the United States. I pledge to maintain my body, mind and equipment in a constant state of readiness for I am a member of the fastest deployable Task Force in the world - ready to move at a moments notice anytime, anywhere, arriving on target plus or minus 30 seconds. I guard my unit's mission with secrecy, for my only true ally is the night and the element of suprise. My manner is that of the Special Operations Quiet Professional, secrecy is a way of life. In battle, I eagerly meet the enemy for I volunteered to be up front where the fighting is hard. I fear no foe's ability, nor underestimate his will to fight. The mission and my precious cargo are my concern. I will never surrender. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country. Gallantly will I show the world and the elite forces I support that a Night Stalker is a specially selected and well trained soldier. I serve with the memory and pride of those who have gone before me for they loved to fight, fought to win and would rather die than quit. Night Stalkers Don't Quit!
forgot something there is one more line there.. at the end... "But God knows the way I take, and when He has tested me, I will come out as gold" Job 23:10
There's a mistake in this creed....First paragraph it says.....Arriving on target plus or minus 30 seconds. It's suppose to be....Arriving time on target plus or minus 30 seconds. Nothing big, I was studying the creed from this website and just noticed it.
Actually, it is "arriving on target plus or minus 30 seconds" at least that is what is printed in my little book that they gave me when I went to the 20 year formal last weekend.
That's what their having us say right now in Green Platoon, so who knows, maybe I'm wrong, But I'm gonna go with what they have now.;)
MMM Good Creed, You guys are like the medival dragons that lurk the night, No one knows your coming, and when your there it is too late for saviour fate. 160th SOAR freakin Rules.
