Here is an original song you can use for the 1/23 recruits as they approach the end of probation and confirmation. The tone is respectful, motivating, and suitable for a formal or parade setting.

Title: “Stand Confirmed”
Verse 1
From the first dawn call, we answered the cry,
Left our homes with hope, heads lifted high.
Through trials and tests, through sweat and pain,
We stood together in sun and rain.
Discipline shaped us, the uniform worn,
By duty, by honour, new servants were born.
Each step we marched, each lesson learned,
For the right to serve, our place we earned.
Chorus
Now we stand confirmed, united and strong,
1/23, where we belong.
With pride in our hearts and truth as our guide,
We serve our country, no fear inside.
Hand in hand, we answer the call,
To protect, to serve, to stand tall.
Verse 2
There were days we doubted, nights we prayed,
Moments when strength alone couldn’t stay.
But courage grew where weakness tried,
And teamwork carried us side by side.
The badge we wear is not just a sign,
It’s a promise to serve, in every time.
To uphold the law, to do what’s right,
To be the calm in the nation’s fight.
Chorus
Now we stand confirmed, united and strong,
1/23, where we belong.
With pride in our hearts and truth as our guide,
We serve our country, no fear inside.
Hand in hand, we answer the call,
To protect, to serve, to stand tall.
Bridge
We remember the path that brought us here,
The sacrifices made, the lessons clear.
Not for glory, not for fame,
But for the people, in the nation’s name.
Final Chorus
We stand confirmed, committed and true,
With loyalty, courage, in all we do.
From this day forward, our duty is clear,
To serve with honour, year by year.
For God, for country, for justice we stand,
1/23—ready to serve this land.
Outro
Confirmed in duty, confirmed in pride,
Together we march, whatever betide.

If you want, I can:
Adjust it to police, military, correctional, or security recruits
Add Bislama lines for local impact
Rewrite it to fit a marching rhythm or slow anthem style
