Additional ver ses: Minds of men fashioned a cr ate of thunder , Sent it high into the blue; Hands of men blasted the wor ld asunder ; How they lived God only knew! (God only knew then!)

Br idge: " A Toast to the Host" Her e' s a toast to the host Of those who love the vastness of the sky, To a fr iend we send a message of his br other men who fly.

Off we go into the wild sky yonder , Keep the wings level and tr ue; If you'd live to be a gr ey-hair ed wonder Keep the nose out of the blue! (Out of the blue, boy!) Flying men, guar ding the nation' s bor der , We' ll be ther e, followed by mor e! In echelon we car r y on. Hey! Nothing' ll stop the U.S. Air For ce!
