Reverence

Reverent calls are a growing effort by conservative personnel in armed forces to rebuild the tradition of oratory recounting of military history in the convention of cadences. The effect this instills is a greater reverence in the squad performing and for the force whose story is retold in honorable PT. Each branch of an armed force has its stories, and an example of the base used is the 101st Infantry's "Airborne Ranger" in which references to Bataan for example are included to complement the story.

Deep in the battlefield covered in blood,
lies an Airborne Ranger dying in mud.

Air, bor, or, or, orne
Ran, ger, er, er, er, er

He fought to keep America free;
for soldiers like, you and me

Air, bor, or, or, orne
Ran, ger, er, er, er, er

Those silver wings upon his chest,
tell America that he's one of the best.

Air, bor, or, or, orne
Ran, ger, er, er, er, er
