I am a guardian of the Army's health. I will do all in my power to assure that America's soldiers are strong and fit. And if they are wounded, injured or sick, I will preserve their lives; I will ease their pain and suffering; I will restore their bodies; I will help build their effectiveness and spirt.
I accept the responsibility of being a medic soldier. I will maintain the physical, mental and moral strength to fulfill this high obligation and, in all ways, I will devote my highest abilities to learning and performing my medical and military duties.
I recognize that to succeed in this I also must possess the highest soldierly virtues. I wil therefore make loyalty my guide, courage my ally, honor and integrity my servants, and self-discipline my master, so that in all circumstances and under all conditions my efforts will be correct and successful.
I will, by my own attitude and example, inspire compassion for humanity, loyalty to the Army, my people, and a true conviction that the American ideals of freedom and equality for all mankind will prevail. |
