Are you talking about the scene where they are lined up singing in front of the tanks before they leave...If so wasn't that something like Eichleibedein Deuschlande, Been awhile since I wrote German "many whiles"

Danny Boy - Memphis Belle.

When it breaks out into swing music for the balloon drop, that's awesome. Next to impossible to find a girl that knows how to dance to it though.

You ever see the movie?  You should check it out sometime, it's pretty good.


Ohhh thts what your talking about. Sorry bout dat

One of my favorite parts also.

Unfortunately its one of the few parts in the movie that ddint happen that way.

Although the exchange of "Dont shirk Patton I shat kisss you"

"Tis a pity because I shaved especially close this morning in preparation of being smacked by you"

did

No worries.

And I believe it was 'shant'.  The other spelling changes the meaning slightly to something a bit sinister...

Hmm Favorite song. Haveta be a few as I cant name just one.
Danny boy from MB was good as was the one from Battle of the bulge.

As well as "The Ballad of the Green Baret"

I guess while not Technically a song I would haveto include the cadence march from "Battle Ground"

Musically. Anything from the "Patton" Soundtrack and "German advance" in particular..

Also the music from "the Blue Max"
and  The Great Escape

The theme song from Patton is my favorite from all the war pictures.

As a kid, I must have listened to an LP with the music from 633 Squadron roughly one million times. Still one of my all time favorites...
