DRILL SERGEANT CREED

Drill Sergeant Donta Jones: I am a Drill Sergeant. I will assist each individual in their efforts to become a highly motivated, well disciplined, physically and mentally fit Soldier, capable of defeating any enemy on today's modern battlefield.

Drill Sergeant Diana Ulloa: I will instill pride in all I train. Pride in self, in the Army, and in Country.

Drill Sergeant Marcos Madrazo: I will insist that each Soldier meets and maintains the Army standards of military bearing and courtesy, consistent with the highest traditions of the U.S. Army.

Drill Sergeant Donta Jones: I will lead by example, never requiring a Soldier to attempt any task I would not do myself.

Drill Sergeant Diana Ulloa: But first, last, and always, I am an American Soldier.

Drill Sergeant Marcos Madrazo: Sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.
