Leader’s CodePart One

I become a cadet leader by what I do. I knowmy strengths and my weaknesses, and Istrive constantly for self-improvement. I liveby a moral code and set an example thatothers can follow. I know my job, and I carryout the spirit as well as the letter of theorders I receive.

Leader’s CodePart Three

I train my cadets as a team and lead them with tactenthusiasm and justice. I command theirconfidence and their loyalty: they know I wouldnot assign them any duties I, myself, would notperform. I make sure they understand thier jobsand I follow through energetically to ensure theirduties are completed fully; I keep my cadetsinformed, and I make their welfare one of myprime concerns. These things I do selflessly infulfillment of the obligations of leadership andfor the achievement of the group goal.

• high levels of MORALE

• people with high levels of job PROFICIENCY

• DISCIPLINE among their members

• a group spirit called ESPRIT DE COPRS

Taps


General Daniel Butterfield

Day is done, gone the sunFrom the hills, from the lakeFrom the sky.All is well, safely rest,God is nigh.

Go to sleep, peaceful sleep,May the soldier or sailor,God keep.On the land or the deep,Safe in sleep.

Love, good night, must thou go,When the day and the night,Needs thee so?All is well, Speedeth allTo their rest.

Fades the light; and afarGoeth day and the starsShineth bright,Fare thee well; Day is gone,Night is on.

Thanks and praise, for our days,Neath the sun, neath the stars,Neath the sky,As we go, this we know,God is nigh

Coast Guard Hymn


Captain Francis Van Boskerck

Eternal Father, Lord of HostsWatch o’er the ones who guard our coastsProtect them from the raging seasAnd give them light thy great throne aboveThe shield and shelter of thy love.Lord, guard and guide the ones who flyThrough the great spaces in the skyBe with them always in the air,In darken storms or sunlight fair,Oh, hear us when we lift our prayer,For those in peril in the air!Grant to them Your eternal peace, Oh Lord,For they have followed your commandment,That No Greater Love has he, who wouldGive up his life for another.

Amen
