Air Force Song Verse I

Off we go into the wild blue yonder,

Climbing high into the sun;

Here they come, zooming to meet our thunder,

At 'em now, giv'em the gun! (Give 'em the gun, hey!)

Down we dive spouting our flames from under,

Off with one hell-uv-a-roar!

We live in fame or go down in flame - Hey!

Nothing'll stop the U.S. Air Force!

Incoming Projectiles

Alert others - Immediately and loudly shout "INCOMING!" to warn nearby personnel.

Drop to the ground - Assume the prone position as quickly as possible.

Orient your body - Position your feet toward the blast to minimize exposure.

Protect yourself - Keep your head down, cover your ears with your hands or arms, and slightly open your

mouth to reduce blast pressure effects.

Remain in position - Stay down until the explosion has occurred and it is safe to move.

Note: The same procedures will be followed for grenades and other explosives. If the explosive is identified,

shout its name. For grenades, shout "GRENADE!"
