It's not the kind of song to be sung, but the best military march has to be Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever."

Au contraire, mon frer

Hooray for our flag, hold it high

Let the stars and the stripes tell the story

Of vict'ries our fathers have won in their struggle for liberty

Salute with the roll of the drum

Let the world know our fight for human freedom

Our faith in mankind and the right

America! America! Live on forever.

But "Battle Hymn of The Republic" is still tops!

Thanks for printing the words, gracex7. Even more proof that march wasn't meant to be sung, IMHO.

Remember this variation?

Be kind to your web-footed friends
For that duck may be somebody's mother . .
