Ah yes, "Jody calls," we've all heard them, marched to them, run to them, or called them out in a motivated tone; so, what are some of your all time favorites? As this is an inter-service thread, we want to hear from all of you--Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Reserve of each of the above, and the National Guard--so what are your favorite service-specific cadences, and do you have an old standby or trusty go-to cadence? Perhaps it was one that was once popular but somehow fell out of use, or maybe an just an old standard or unique favorite. Please feel free to share any photos, videos, sound files, stories, associated memories, and/or anything else needed to help to tell your story. I'm sure that an old classic or two comes to mind, so "one, two, three, four-or... this is what we're here for-or..." So, pull up a keyboard and let's get this thing started, thank you for all that you do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!

After 3 years as a Drill Sergeant, I never had a problem with calling cadence...ever. My favorite was always: Up in the morning, before day. I don't like it, no way. Eat my breakfast too damn soon. Hungry as hell, by noon. Went to the mess Daddy on my knees. I said mess Daddy mess Daddy feed me please. Mess Daddy said with a big ol grin, if you wanna be Army you gotta be thin.

Don't let your dingle dangle dangle in the dirt,

pick up your dingle dangle put it in your shirt...

Any ever heard the "Airborne Rangers Crossed the Line," "The S&M Man," or "Ralph, the Airborne Ranger."  These the classics. They are extremely vulgar.

Load another magazine,
in my trusty M16.
Cuz all I ever wanna see!
Is bodies, bleeding bodies.


Throw another hand grenade!
Should have seen the mess I made.
Cuz all I ever wanna see,
Is bodies, broken bodies.


Stab em with the bayonet!
If he squirms you're not done yet!
Cuz all I ever wanna see,
Is bodies, cut-up bodies.

Call some more TACAIR.
On that bunker over there.
Cuz all I ever wanna see,
Is bodies burnin bodies!
