11th Engineer Battalion

BOARD STUDY GUIDE


THE MISSION
Our mission is to provide Mobility, Counter-Mobility, Survivability, and General
Engineer Support to the 2ID, Eighth Army, and the ROK Army allowing Freedom of
Maneuver (FoM) and a position of advantage over the enemy.

THE WARRIOR MARCH


We’re born in France in ’17, In the Hell of the First World War.
With Infantry and proud Marine, We bravely fought amidst the cannons roar.
The warriors went across the Meuse and
River Marne, Our name and our fame were won.
We marched home proudly with flags held on high, And they called us “SECOND TO
NONE.”
Today along the DMZ, Ever watchful the Warriors stage.
To guard the rights of liberty, Bravely writing history’s newest page.
Forward together with Korea sure and bold, We fear not the enemy’s gun.
We hold our ground and confidence sound, For you know we’re “SECOND TO NONE.”
