The Ten Tor’s

The final part of the Sergeant’s course,

Complete the walk of ‘The Ten Tor’s.’

Do it in full combat gear.

Do it in the cold and without fear.

Climb ‘The Ten Tor’s’ without defeat.

Climb ‘The Ten Tor’s’ with your blistered feet.

Climb ‘The Ten Tor’s’ and stand on every crest.

Climb ‘The Ten Tor’s’ and become your very best.

Twenty two miles, it’s a breeze, it’s a stroll.

Twenty two miles will soon take their toll.

Beat their challenges and complete their courses,

To become the very best of the British forces.

So grab your gear, let’s go orienteering.

We signed up as soldiers, not volunteering.

I’ve done the courses, defeated every hilly chalk.

I’ve done ‘The Ten Tor’s’ that back breaking walk.
