Q

The NCO Creed

A

No one is more professional than I.
I am a Noncommissioned Officer, a leader of Soldiers.
As a Noncommissioned Officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is known as “The Backbone of the Army”.
I am proud of the Corps of Noncommissioned Officers and will at all times conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the Military Service and my country regardless of the situation in which I find myself.
I will not use my grade or position to attain
pleasure, profit, or personal safety.

Competence is my watchword.
My two basic responsibilities will always be uppermost in my mind—accomplishment of my mission and the welfare of my Soldiers.
I will strive to remain technically and tactically proficient.
I am aware of my role as a Noncommissioned Officer.
I will fulfill my responsibilities inherent in that role.
All Soldiers are entitled to outstanding leadership; I will provide that leadership.
I know my Soldiers and I will always place their needs above my own.
I will communicate consistently with my Soldiers and never leave them uninformed.
I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.

Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties; they will not have to accomplish mine.
I will earn their respect and confidence as well as
that of my Soldiers.
I will be loyal to those with whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike.
I will exercise initiative by taking appropriate action in the
absence of orders.
I will not compromise my integrity, nor my moral courage.
I will not forget, nor will I allow my comrades to forget that we are professionals, Noncommissioned Officers, leaders!

Verse:
March along, sing our song, with the Army of the free.
Count the brave, count the true, who have fought to victory.
We’re the Army and proud of our name!

First to fight for the right,
And to build the Nation’s might,
And The Army Goes Rolling Along.
Proud of all we have done,
Fighting till the battle’s won,
And the Army Goes Rolling Along.
