Description
(Verse 1)
Down at Homestead Air Force Base under the blazing sun,
Tireless days when the mission’s work was never done.
Radar screens are glowin’, keepin’ all the skies clear,
Seven Twenty Six, you know we were always here.
Ops on the headset, voices steady, calm, and low,
Ground Radio hummin’, ready, set to go.
AGE keeps the power, wideband runs strong and long,
Every man and woman, playin’ their proud song.
(Chorus)
We were Prepared to Go, wherever duty calls,
Standin’ tall together, united through it all.
From the flight line dust to the comm lines that glow,
Seven Twenty Six — a steadfast, fearless soul.
(Verse 2)
Job Control’s watchful eye, QC takin’ the lead,
Sat Com, Telephones — givin’ comms the speed.
Food Service feedin’, Medics standin’ by,
Secure Coms guardin’ secrets no one can deny.
Vehicles rollin’, computers lined in a row,
Supporting every mission, every day we know.
MAC birds liftin’ heavy, cargo in their care,
Thanks to this crew, they get everywhere.
(Chorus)
We were Prepared to Go, wherever duty calls,
Standin’ tall together, united through it all.
From the radar’s steady glow to the jet’s mighty roll,
Seven Twenty Six — the heart, the soul.
(Bridge)
Brothers and sisters, wearin’ the patch with pride,
Guardin’ the watch beneath the stars as our guide.
No matter the mission, no matter the load,
We carried each other on that long, hard road.
(Final Chorus)
We were Prepared to Go, and forever we knew,
The red, white, and blue was countin’ on you.
From Homestead skies to wherever winds may blow,
Seven Twenty Six Squadron — Prepared to Go.
