The Medley was first performed in public during the first National Memorial Day Concert in 1990 on the west lawn of the United States Capitol Building in the national capital, Washington, D.C., aired as in today by the PBS network and played for the first time by the National Symphony Orchestra, backed by a civil chorus and military choirs from the United States Armed Forces. The Armed Forces Medley, also known as the Armed Forces Salute is a collection of the official marchpasts/songs of the 5 services of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard.

I used a variation that worked best for my particular choral ensemble. There are different versions of lyrics for these five anthems with small variations. A very special event my school puts together every year. We had actual veterans in the audience, including a WWII veteran. I used this accompaniment for my chorus performance at our 2019 Veteran’s Day Celebration. It is an instant digital download, so you'll get everything immediately. The singers will enjoy singing it as well. I have used it multiple times for Veteran Day celebrations, school concerts, nursing home visits, and it was always received very enthusiastically by all audiences. The arrangement will work wonderfully for any type of public performance as well as for classroom singing. There have been lots of requests for me to create a song packet for this, so I did create one. There is a lot of dynamic increase throughout the piece leading to a very anticipated CODA.

The accompaniment is my own creation and it is very exciting! The instrumentation is a full orchestra and the mood is very festive and celebratory. The arrangement is my own and is made for Unison Chorus. This is my own adaptation and arrangement of the five anthems of our Armed Forces: Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, Marines. We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine! First to fight for right and freedom, and to keep our honor clean. Airforce!įrom the halls of Montezuma to the shores of tripoli we will fight our country's battles in the air, on land, and sea. Here they come zooming to meet our thunder, At'em boys! give'er the gun! Down we dive, spouting our flame from under, Off with one terrible roar! We live in fame or go down in flame. Off we go into the wild blue yonder, Climbing high into the sun. We're always ready do or die! Aye, Coast Guard, We fight for you! Through howling Gail and shot and shell to win our victory! Semper Paratus is our guide! Our pledge and motto too. We're always ready for the call, We place our trust in Thee. Three.) For where you go, you will always know that those caissons go rolling along.Īnchors aweigh, my boys, Anchors Aweigh! Farewell to college joys, we sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay Through our last night ashore, hail to the foam, Until we meet once more, Here's wishing you a happy voyage home! For it's hi! hi! hee! in the field artillery, Count out your numbers loud and strong, (Two. In and out, hear them shout, Counter marching all about and those caissons go rolling along. Over hill, over dale will hit the dusty trail, And those caissons go rolling along. The medley is usually played in increasing order of precedence. The Armed Forces Medley, also known as the Armed Forces Salute is a collection of the official marchpasts/songs of the 6 services of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, and as of 2020 the Space Force. ▶︎ If you believe that I have infringed on your rights to any of the music on this channel, please contact me at and I'll take it down immediately.
