Originally written by a Soldier friend of mine, it is an adaptation of the Army’s Soldier’s Creed.
The DrillMaster’s Creed
I am a DrillMaster.
I am an expert in all forms of drill: Regulation and Exhibition.
I am or was a senior member of a team and one of the best therein.
I am a leader and a teacher.
I use the fundamentals and teachings not only in drill but in my everyday life.
I compete with myself; I teach those I mentor to exceed my expectations.
I never quit and never grow impatient with those I teach.
I always compete, command and perform above 100%.
Whether I win or lose, I have the heart of a winner and push to move on and grow.
I treat other Drillers with the respect and dignity with which I wish to be treated.
I am always learning and never stop growing.
I am a DrillMaster.
