34,800

(There have been a few people around here lately who will score much higher. They're the ones who redefine words to suit themselves, so of course they'll know at least one definition of every word shown to them!)

40,300....that actually embarrasses me a little bit. On the one hand only 40k? On the other..why do I only use about 300 of them..lol?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

By the way, I checked it out just for shits and giggles and the max score is 45,000.

38,800 for me. Some of the words are tempting to state that one knows, but if you cannot truly define it, checking the box for it because you could suss it out in context is dishonest.
