Mission Control

Mission Control

Your mission, should you choose to accept it,

is to straighten up and fly right, hear me?

And you get my ironic tone in should you

choose to accept it, right?  Around here,

you aren’t choosy about missions.  Commanding

officers are the ones who do the choosing.

Be proud that they find you worthy of their trust.

They expressed that trust by choosing you.   

Keep that in mind as you execute your mission.

In the field, you sergeants become our executives

as you put our commands into action.  Be ready,

be quick, be accurate and faithful.  You are essential.

God bless the weapons we deploy.

God bless every one of you soldiers.

God bless your mission, Troops.

Amen.
