Flag: Flag of the Army & Navy Academy
Song: Alma Mater of the Army & Navy Academy (string verison)
About the Flag:
This flag is the present flag of the Army & Navy Academy. And has been used for the last quarter of the last century by the color guard of the San Army and Navy Academy. I recreated this image on SAI Paint Tool using the original flag for reference. Black and Gold are the Academy's colors and Pro Deo et Pro Patria is the Academy's motto.
About the Song:
The song is the present Alma Mater of the Army and Navy Academy written by President and former Bandmaster Col. W. C. Atkinson. This song has been sung by generations of cadets and alumni who were part of the ANA long grey line. This song represents the brotherhood of the Corps of Cadets.
Lyrics:
Sheltered by the Sun kissed hills, Bordered by the Sea,
Hail to Army Navy, Our mother ever be!
May thy standards lead us on - on to victory.
Hail to Alma Mater, All Hail! All Hail! To Thee.
Proud we stand as one the Corps, proudly do we sing.
Brother stands by brother, now hear our voices ring.
May your standards keep us strong, strong in loyalty,
Hail to Army-Navy, All Hail! All Hail! To Thee!
Loyal Sons of ANA let your voices ring,
Praising Alma Mater, to Her we'll honor bring.
May thy memory linger on through each fleeting year,
Binding us together in pathways far and near
Warrior Pride!
need lyrics damn it!
