military cadence

[Serenity]

I'd love to share "Yogi was a big brown bear", but that one gets really bad after the first few verses.

Pretty please PM!

Geez, Treize.  Miss the Cav a little?  I only remember the dirty ones.

A little bird, with yellow bill.......

....and then I stomped (Slams left foot) his little head.

I know a lot so if you want to PM me, I'll give you some.

Not a cadence, but-

    1. Let Bacchus' sons be not dismayed. . .

    From Garryowen in glory.

And the tune is http://www.contemplator.com/midimusic/garryown.mid

When its used as a marching song, like cadence, the leader (senior NCO or Officer) sings the verses, and the unit sings back the chorus.

Nearly everyone has heard the song, but most don't realize what it is. For example, its the one tune most people recall from the John Wayne movie The Quiet Man

I've always heard this played in movies about Custer and the 7th Calvary - usually when they are riding off to whatever the PC crowd calls the Custer's Last Stand battle nowadays.  Never knew the actual words to the song though - thanks!

Theres a more modern version (written in 1905) that the current 7th Cavalry sings to pays homage to their history, but since I'm about as anti-Custer as a guy can get, I refuse to learn the lyrics. I'll find it and share if you want though.
