Cadet Creed
I am an Army Cadet. Soon I will take an oath and become an Army Officer committed to Defending the values which make this nation great. Honor is my touchstone. I understand Mission first and People always.
I am the Past- the spirit of those warriors who made the final sacrifice.
I am the Present- the scholar and apprentice soldier enhancing my skills in the science of warfare and the art of Leadership.
But above all, I am the Future- the future Warrior Leader of the United States Army. May god give me the compassion and judgment to lead and the gallantry in battle to Win.
I Will Do My Duty.
