No oath is recited or spoken

No ceremony for swearing in

Just a passionate and resolute spirit

When the military spouse journey begins

Independent, but always loyal

With an adventurous, adaptable soul

Fear may shake them to their core

But it only helps their courage to grow

Anchored in a sea that’s uncertain

Not knowing what tomorrow may bring

They shed tears for those lost and hurting

And surround one another with strength

Rooted in brave determination

And a tenacious, humble heart

With steadfast, compassion for others

That keeps them from falling apart

They rise beyond what most can handle

An often unseen and powerful force

With wholehearted loyalty they serve

The military spouse deserves our support 

Let’s show them they are not unnoticed

They are brave, steadfast and true

Their loved ones rely on their strength

They deserve our deepest gratitude
