SEMPER PARATUS

From Aztec shore, to Arctic zone, to Europe and Far East, The flag is carried by our ships in times of war and peace, An never have we struck it yet, in spite of foeman's might, Who cheered our crews and cheered again for showing how to fight
*CHORUS*
This is the Coast Guard's marching song We sing on land and sea, 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 or fight and die Aye, Coast Guard we are for you.

INGHAM and her sisters have fully validated the proud proclamation of the song.
