CSM Moorer

Rock steady soldiers, CSM Moorer passing by,

Address her properly, look her in they eye.

Nearly thirty years ago she joined the Woman’s Army Corps.

Would she stay three or thirty, she just wasn’t sure.

From a small town in the south she left home.

Like the new soldiers today, she felt alone.

For a young black woman, success was hard to achieve,

Faith in her God and herself, she had to believe.

She asked for the hardest jobs and did them well,

She had a reputation for caring and raising a little hell.

As a Battalion CSM she was known for being tough,

Standards less than perfect would never be enough.

Use her as a role model and you’ll never go wrong.
Pride in yourself and your convictions strong.

Stand tall soldiers, stand at Parade Rest,

CSM Moorer passing by, she is one of the best.

One of the finest CSMs I’ve ever served under; a real soldier and a true lady.
