Asymmetric Music

I love this song. It's plaintive recognition of people willing to die for their country (and encourage their son to think similarly) is the closest to a martial virtue post-forties popular music gets.

Bonus! In Spanish too.

Andrew Sisters Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy. The 1940s- When strait white men danced:

Johnny Horton and the Battle of 1812. Honoring those new Americans who fought the British in that most senseless of American wars.

Cadence, a military phenomenon I don't often miss. Shockingly un-PC.
