BOATSWAIN…STAND-BY TO PIPE THE SIDE!!
THIS ORDER HAS BEEN PASSED ON NAVAL SHIPS FROM THE
1500’S THROUGH TODAY. SPANISH, FRENCH, ENGLISH,
DUTCH…YES, ALL NAVIES OF THE WORLD USE THE
BOATSWAIN, SIDEBOYS AND CALL TO BRING ABOARD OR
SEND ASHORE ALL SHIP’S COMPANY OFFICERS, VISITING
OFFICERS, DIGNITARIES, AND VIPs.
THE SIDEBOYS WOULD HAUL ON THE ROPES AND RAISE OR
LOWER THE BOARDING PLATFORM SO OFFICERS WOULD NOT
HAVE TO CLIMB THE RAT LINES (WHICH WERE HANGING
OVER THE SIDE AND USED BY THE ENLISTED CREW) WHEN
GOING ASHORE OR TO GET ABOARD. THIS HONOR WAS
EXTENDED TO VISITING OFFICERS, DIGNITARIES, AND PORT
OFFICIALS.
IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THE COMMANDING OFFICER OF
A SHIP TO ORDER UP THE JOLLY BOAT, A CREW OF EIGHT
STRONG BACKS, SIDEBOYS, AND BOATSWAIN…TO SEND AN
OLD SHIPMATE TO HIS SHORE RETIREMENT…HOME…NEVER
TO SAIL ON NAVAL SHIPS AGAIN.
“ALL HANDS ON DECK” WAS PASSED, SPEECHES WERE MADE
ABOUT GREAT VICTORIES, BATTLES FOUGHT UPON THE OPEN
SEA, RAGING STORMS WEATHERED, AND VOYAGES TO
DISTANT AND STRANGE LANDS WITH PORTS-OF-CALL
OTHERS ONLY DREAMED ABOUT.

OLDE GLORY PRESENTATION
I AM THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. MY NAME IS OLDE
GLORY.
I FLY ATOP THE WORLD'S TALLEST BUILDINGS
I STAND WATCH IN AMERICA'S HALLS OF JUSTICE.
I FLY MAJESTICALLY OVER GREAT INSTITUTIONS OF LEARNING.
I STAND GUARD WITH THE GREATEST MILITARY POWER IN THE WORLD.
LOOK UP! AND SEE ME!!!
I STAND FOR PEACE HONOR TRUTH AND JUSTICE.
I STAND FOR FREEDOM!!
I AM CONFIDENT, I AM ARROGANT, I AM PROUD.
WHEN I AM FLOWN WITH MY FELLOW BANNERS, MY HEAD IS HELD A
LITTLE HIGHER - MY COLORS ARE A LITTLE TRUER
I BOW TO NO ONE!
I AM RECOGNIZED ALL OVER THE WORLD.
I AM WORSHIPPED - I AM SALUTED - I AM RESPECTED - I AM REVERED - I
AM LOVED - I AM FEARED!!
FOR MORE THAN 200 YEARS, I HAVE FOUGHT IN EVERY BATTLE OF EVERY
WAR; GETTYSBURG, SHILOH, APPOMATTOX, SAN JUAN HILL,THE
TRENCHES OF FRANCE, THE ARGENNE FOREST, ANZIO, ROME, THE
BEACHES OF NORMANDY, THE JUNGLES OF GUAM, OKINAWA, TARAWA,
KOREA, VIETNAM AND IN THE HEAT OF THE PERSIAN GULF AND A SCORE
OF OTHER PLACES.
LONG FORGOTTEN BY ALL, BUT THOSE WHO WERE THERE WITH ME.
I WAS THERE.
I LED MY SAILORS AND MARINES,
I FOLLOWED THEM, I WATCH OVER THEM, THEY LOVE ME.
I WAS ON A SMALL HILL ON IWO JIMA.
I WAS DIRTY BATTLE TORN AND TIRED BUT MY SAILORS AND MARINES
CHEERED ME!!!!
I WAS PROUD!
I HAVE BEEN SOILED BURNED TORN AND TRAMPLED ON THE STREETS OF
COUNTRIES THAT I HAVE HELPED TO SET FREE.
IT DOES NOT HURT FOR I AM INVINCIBILE.
18
I HAVE BEEN SOILED BURNED TORN AND TRAMPLED ON THE STREETS OF
MY OWN COUNTRY AND WHEN IT IS DONE BY THOSE WHOM WITH I HAVE
SERVED IN BATTLE. IT HURTS!!!
BUT I SHALL OVERCOME FOR I AM STRONG!!
I HAVE SLIPPED THE SURELY BOUNDS OF EARTH AND, FROM MY
VANTAGE POINT ON THE MOON,
I STAND WATCH OVER THE NEW FRONTIERS OF SPACE.
I HAVE BEEN THE SILENT WITNESS TO ALL OF AMERICA'S FINEST HOURS.
BUT MY FINEST HOUR COMES WHEN I AM TORN INTO STRIPS, TO BE USED
AS BANDAGES FOR MY WOUNDED COMRADES ON THE FIELD OF BATTLE.
WHEN I FLY HALF MAST TO HONOR MY SAILORS AND MARINES AND
WHEN I LIE IN THE TREMBLING ARMS OF A GRIEVING MOTHER – AT THE
GRAVESIDE OF HER FALLEN SON OR DAUGHTER I AM PROUD!
MY NAME IS "OLDE GLORY" LONG MAY I WAVE DEAR GOD, LONG MAY I
WAVE.

IN THE LATE 1700’S, THE U.S. NAVY SET SAIL WITH NEW IDEAS, NEW
GOALS, AND A DESIRE TO BUILD TRADITIONS THAT WOULD LAST
THROUGH THE TEST OF TIEM. THE U.S. NAVY LED THE WAY WITH
PROVIDING HONORS FOR CREWMEN. THE 1800’S SAW ENLISTED
MEN HOLDING RETIREMENTS FOR ENLISTED MEN FOR THE FIRST
TIME. THE CAPTAIN WOULD ALLOW THE JOLLY BOAT TO TAKE THE
ENLISTED RETIREEE ASHORE. THEN, AFTER THE CIVIL WAR,
COMMANDING OFFICERS BEGAN TO HOLD ENLISTED RETIREMENT
CEREMONIES TO SHOW THE CREW THAT HE, AND THE NAVY,
RECOGNIZED THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF ITS ENLISTED CREWMEN.

THE FOLLOWING RETIREMENT CREED
YOU HAVE THIS DAY EXPERIENCED THAT WHICH COMES TO ALL OF US
WHO SERVE ON ACTIVE DUTY IN "OUR NAVY." I SAY "OUR NAVY"
BECAUSE YOUR DEPARTURE FROM ACTIVE DUTY IN NO WAY
TERMINATES YOUR RELATIONSHIP, REGARD, OR OBLIGATION TO THE
UNITED STATES NAVY AND YOUR FELLOW CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS. BY
LAW AND TRADITION U.S. NAVY RETIREES ARE ALWAYS ON THE ROLLS EVER READY TO LEND THEIR SERVICE WHEN THE NEED ARISES. THE
RESPECT THAT YOU EARNED AS "THE CHIEF" WAS BASED ON THE SAME
ATTRIBUTES THAT YOU WILL NOW CARRY INTO RETIREMENT. YOU
SHOULD HAVE NO REGRETS AND SHOULD NOT VIEW YOUR RETIREMENT
AS AN END OF AN ERA, BUT RATHER AS ORDERS TO A NEW AND
CHALLENGING ASSIGNMENT, TO A FORM OF INDEPENDENT DUTY.
REMEMBER WELL THAT YOU HAVE BEEN, AND WILL ALWAYS BE AN
ACCEPTED MEMBER OF THE MOST EXCLUSIVE OF ALL MARITIME
FRATERNITIES - THAT OF THE U.S. NAVY CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS. ACTIVE
DUTY CHIEFS SALUTE YOU –

TODAY OUR NAVY HAS GIVEN MOST OF THE POMP AND
CIRCUMSTANCE, THE HONORS, TRADITIONS, AND CEREMONIES
BACK TO HISTORY…TIME DOES NOT GIVE US THE FREEDOM TO DO
THESE THINGS FROM THE PAST…BUT, WE STILL HAVE TO STOP ALL
ENGINES, LAY ABOUT SMARTLY, AND DROP ANCHOR TO PAY
HOMAGE TO ONE OF OUR SHIPMATES GOING ASHORE. TO HONOR
THE YEARS SERVED, THE GUIDANCE, THE LEADERSHIP, THE
FRIENDSHIP AND THE EXPERTISE THAT THIS SHIPMATE HAS FREELY
GIVEN THESE 22 YEARS.
FOR TWENTY TWO YEARS, THIS SAILOR HAS STOOD THE WATCH.
WHILE SOME OF US WERE IN OUR BUNKS AT NIGHT THIS SAILOR
STOOD THE WATCH
WHILE SOME OF US WERE IN SCHOOL LEARNING OUR TRADE, THIS
SHIPMATE STOOD THE WATCH
YES, EVEN BEFORE SOME OF US WERE BORN INTO THIS WORLD ...
THIS SHIPMATE STOOD THE WATCH
IN THOSE YEARS WHEN THE STORM CLOUDS OF WAR WERE SEEN
BREWING ON THE HORIZON OF HISTORY THIS SHIPMATE STOOD THE
WATCH
MANY TIMES HE WOULD CAST AN EYE ASHORE AND SEE HIS
FAMILY STANDING THERE ... NEEDING HIS GUIDANCE AND
HELP...NEEDING THAT HAND TO HOLD DURING THOSE HARD
TIMES ... BUT HE STILL STOOD THE WATCH
HE STOOD THE WATCH FOR TWENTY-TWO YEARS
HE STOOD THE WATCH SO THAT WE , OUR FAMILIES, AND OUR
FELLOW COUNTRYMEN COULD SLEEP SOUNDLY IN SAFETY EACH
AND EVERY NIGHT KNOWING THAT A SAILOR STOOD THE WATCH
TODAY WE ARE HERE TO SAY "SHIPMATE, THE WATCH STANDS
RELIEVED. RELIEVED BY THOSE YOU HAVE LED, GUIDED, AND
TRAINED.
CHIEF CARWILE, YOU STAND RELIEVED. WE HAVE THE WATCH.
