What is NMMI's song?

Answer 1

NMMI has two main songs which are Institute specific - Old Post, and the NMMI Fight Song. Old Post is sung at most alumni functions, homecoming, and other reverent occasions, whereas the Fight Song is played during all parades (Pass in Review) and sporting events.

THE OLD POST

Verse:

This is our Al-ma Ma-ter

This is our stalwart Ins-ti-tute;

We'll have her always

On our way,

Mem-'ries are with us

Day by day:

Chorus:

We will re-member Kay-dets March-ing

We will re-member Kay-dets play-ing

And bu-gles in the sun-rise

All of our life be-neath blue skies;

These are the things that can-not van-ish,

No mat-ter where we go …..

Old Friends …. Old Post …..

Place we love most …..

In you our hearts will grow.

NMMI Fight Song

Chorus:

N-M-M-I

With our col-ors flying high,

We're all in step

And full of pep,

As we go marching by

RAH RAH RAH

Cheers for the team

On the field or in the gym

The old Bron-co

Is rar-in' to go

And the In-sti-tute is out to win.

(After band interlude repeat chorus)

Anyone who has ever attended NMMI will be able to remember these lyrics like it was yesterday.
