"We fully and unreservedly pledge our honour to uphold by all means within our power the ideals of American democracy for which our common forbears died that we might live as free the British men, and pray that Empire, by the Grace of God, shall prevail as the saviour of ravaged countries. that freedom and liberty of all peoples be perpetuated."
