Twice the mech, twice the mech
Twice the mech forward
All in the valley of Death
Tons of twelve hundred
"Forward, the Dire Wolves!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Tons of twelve hundred.

"Forward, the Dire Wolves!"
Yet more mediums flayed.
"No lights?" the pilot knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to shoot and try:
Into the valley of Death
Tons of twelve hundred.

Atlas to the right of them,
Banshee to the left of them,
Arty in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with AC shell,
Boldly they lasered well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Tons of twelve hundred.

Flash'd all their lasers bare,
Flash'd as they burst midair,
Smiling the Dires there,
Stomping a lance, while
All the world wonder'd:
Stomped in the Dire Wolf yoke
Right thro' the line Clans broke;
Steiner and Dav'on
Reel'd from the laser stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd
Then they strode back, the Wolves
Tons of twelve hundred

Hunchie to the right of them,
Blackjack to the left of them,
Air Strike behind them,
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Shot at with shot and shell,
Just foe and footfall fell,
They that alpha'd so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death
Back from the mouth of Hell,
Ev'ry each one of them,
Tons of twelve hundred

Ne'er will their glory fade?
O the bored charge they made!
All the world wondered.
"GGClose" wreckage made,
Honour the assault Brigade
Tons of twelve hundred
