SOF mottos
 

Hi,

I start a thread about all SOF mottos around the world, or any other motto that is in the spirit of SOF.

There are fews:

Who Dares Wins. origin from "Qui Ose Gagne" (British SAS)
De Oppresso Liber. (US SF) (Ok I'm not a cock...., that's why I didnt put it first :D )
Facta non Verba. "Deeds, not words" (JTF-2, Canadian SOF)
Osons. (or "we dare") (former Canadian Airborne Regiment)
On Rit avec le Diable. "We laugh with the devil" (French, 6RPIMa)
Yesterday was the Last Easy Day. (US NAVY SEALS)
Follow Me. (US Infantry)
Win the Mind Win the Day.
Knowledge is Power.
Nous Défions. "We defy" ( WWII origin)
First in Last out.
You don't have to like it, you just have to do it. (origin: a book :rolleyes: ...)
Could be worst. (universal)
Still having fun? (After a looonnnngggg run).

That`s it for now. your turn.

Molon Labe (come and get them)


Also, I believe that "Facta not Verba" translates to: Deeds not Words

"Lead the way"

Isn't it "Opera Non Verba"?

I'm partial to "Fortes Fortuna Juvat" Fortune Favors the Brave.

"Fide et Fortitudine" By fidelity and fortitude

To Infinity and Beyond !!!!






Okay....I'll go and sit in a corner now.

"I pity the fool!"

"I love it when a plan comes together."

"Nuk nuk nuk!"

Pugnare, Fornicare, Aut Mori

"Five seconds of time fuze is long enough!"

"That MSD is just a suggestion."

"Don't worry, I have over 500 jumps and never had a problem doing it like that."

"Cold beer and trucks will be waiting on the drop zone gents."

"..five more miles..."

The Finnish Laskuvarjojääkärikoulu/Airborne Jaeger School: "Excelsior"

With my non-existent Latin skills I would translate this as "Outdo yourself" or "Aim for excellence". Hope this makes some sense, my own unit does not seem to have a motto, just some old stories about fighting for Bulgarian Independence from the Osman Empire. :)

No, we used "just over the next hill...."
