We are the Guns and your masters!
Saw ye our flashes?
Heard ye the scream of our shells in the night, and the shuddering crashes?

                                                                   Three steel rounds, lying there, not for show,

                                                                   With huge potential, all,

                                                                   Great destinies you will know,

                                                                   To belch forth flames and melt this snow!



                                                         Happy New Year!!  from Seacoast Artillery Company

Smokin' my pipe on the mountings, sniffin' the mornin'-cool,
I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets
It's only the pick of the Army that handles the dear little pets - 'Tss! 'Tss!
