Recite the Soldiers Creed: Which line is from the Soldiers Creed?

• A. I am an American Soldier.
• B. I pledge to defend the nation with honor.
• C. I stand ready to deploy, engage, and destroy in close combat.
• D. I maintain my arms and equipment daily.

Answer: (A)

I am an American Soldier. This opening line sets the tone for the Soldiers Creed, confirming the speaker’s identity and commitment to service. The Creed is about who you are as a Soldier and the responsibilities that come with that identity, not just actions or pledges. The other lines describe oaths, combat roles, or gear maintenance, but they aren’t part of the Soldiers Creed’s wording. So the line that directly states your identity as an American Soldier is the correct one.
