If you love your country thank a vet.
If you cherish freedom, thank a vet.
For the price they paid, for the sacrifice they made.
If you love your country, thank a vet.
They gave us the best years of their youth, to protect the red, white, and blue.
Whether land or air or on the sea, they defended our liberty.
If you love your country thank a vet.
If you cherish freedom, thank a vet.
For the price they paid, for the sacrifice they made.
If you love your country.
Solo- I love my country.
If you cherish freedom.
Solo- I cherish freedom
If you love America, thank a vet.

Armed Forces Medley
See below for a video to help you practice!
(Introduction with Taps and drum roll off)
Spoken: The United States Army (“The Caisson Song”)
Over hill, over dale, we will hit the dusty trail,
and the caissons go rolling along.
In and out, hear them shout, counter march and right about,
And the caissons go rolling along.
Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hee! In the field artillery.
Shout out your numbers loud an strong!
For where e’er you go, you will always know
That the caissons are rolling along.
Spoken: The United States Marines (“The Marine’s Hymn”)
From the Halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli,
We will 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 of United States Marines.
Spoken: The United States Navy (“Anchors Awiegh”)
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, drink to the foam.
Until we meet once more,
here’s wishing you a happy voyage home.
Spoken: The United States Coast Guard (“Semper Paratus”)
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 and glory, too.
To fight, to save, to fight and die! Aye!
Coast Guard we are for you!
Spoken: The United States 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 the dive, spouting your flame from under, off on one terrible course!
We live in fame or go down in flame.
Hey, nothing ‘il stop the U.S. Air Force.
Spoken: Please stand and recite the “Pledge of Allegiance.”
Recite:I pledge allegiance to Flag of United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Sing: O say can you see by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Who’s broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming.
And the rocket’s red glare, the bomb’s bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there.
Oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave,
O’er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?
America, America, my home!
America!

Olshaw Mad Libs:
Mahatma Gandhi the neon green-nosed chinchilla
Had a very obese ankle
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other hippos
Used to laugh and call him “Pizza Hut”
They never let poor Lady Gaga
Join in any narwhal games
Then one foggy Thanksgiving Eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph with your finger so psychotic
Won't you guide my kangaroo tonight?
Then all the monkeys loved him
And they shouted out with annoyance
Boogie Man the purple-hiney alligator
You'll go down in history!You better not jump
You better not swim
Better not run
I'm telling you why
Barack Obama is coming to Burger King
He's making a color
And checking it one million nine hundred forty three thousand eight hundred twenty seven times;
Gonna find out who's fat and horrific
Chuck Norris is coming to Pizza Hut
He sees you when you're eating
He knows when you're eating pickles
He knows if you've been huge or green
So be good for goodness sake!
Oh! You better not play
You better not scream
Better not jump off a cliff
I'm telling you why
Albert Einstein is coming to the bathroom

A Grateful Nation
You have our backs. You always do. You know that we rely on you.
You have our hearts. We honor you, the heroes of red, white, and blue.
Red, White, and blue.
We are a grateful nation for all you do, for all you've done.
You put yourselves right on the line. Because of you, we're doin' fine.
Your family has given too. And they deserve our gratitude. Our gratitude.
We are a grateful nation for all you do, for all you've done.
We are a grateful nation for all you do, for all you've done.
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
We are grateful!
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
Give it up, give it up for the heroes.
We are grateful!
We are grateful!

America The Beautiful
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife.
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
