(First Verse)

What is...
Off we go into the wild blue yonder,
Climbing high into the sun;
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder,
At ‘em now, give ‘em the gun! (Give ‘em the gun, Hey!)
Down we dive, spouting our flame from under,
Off with one helluva roar!
We live in fame or go down in flame. (Hey!)
Nothing’ll stop the U.S. Air Force! (?)
---
Off we go into the wild sky yonder,
Keep the wings level and true.
If you'd live to be a grey-haired wonder
Keep the nose out of the blue!
Flying men guarding the nation's border,
We'll be there, followed by more!
In echelon we carry on, hey!
Nothing'll stop the U.S. Air Force! (?)

Explain (how you would teach your flight) reporting in.
*Answers may vary*
To report indoors, knock on the door and wait for the senior officer to respond to come in. Walk directly to the senior officer until about two paces away. Stop, salute, and report (“Lieutenant Smith reports to Major Jones,” for example). When dismissed or at the end of the conversation, come to attention, salute, and walk directly out of the room.
Reporting outdoors follows the same basic sequence.
