Song of The 2nd Marine
- If anyone doubts your courage
- On your flag he sees the history of France
- From Mexico to Verdun, El Alamein in Tonkin
- The porpoise leaps forward
- In its folds fits every victory
- Including the big names attest to its glory
- For a porpoise, then, what is more beautiful
- How to fight everywhere for its flag
- Walking fine regiment of France
- Boldly go thy way
- Do your duty without failure
- This is the law of all Porpoises
- Wherever France call you
- Bravely you to conquer it
- Forward your valor watch
- Second Marine of France

It is paid for the purpose of giving a merchant marine to the whole country so that the trade of the whole country will be benefitted thereby, and the men running the ships will of course make a reasonable profit.... Unless we have a merchant marine, our navy if called upon for offensive or defensive work is going to be most defective.”
