There are a ton of great songs about military life, that reference the military in some way; some of the more modern works may have a video associated with it, and some of the older classics continue to define the military experience to this day. From country to rock, ballads & pop, to more traditional flavors--did a particular song inspire, educate, or simply strike a chord with you? Please feel free to share any inspiring military-related music, any music or songs that makes you think of/or reminds you of your military service, as well as any links, photos, descriptions or anything that helps you tell your story. The idea here is to have a fun and thought provoking discussion, which will be fun, informative, and provide a means to tell our stories... and to learn about one another as well as our sister services in the process. Wishing you all the best, I look forward to hearing from you, and interacting with you all in the threads!

And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda - Performed by Liam Clancy of The Clancy Bros and Tommy Makem. This one comes to us from Australia and is about a WWI veteran looking back on his experiences during a Remembrance Day (Veteran's Day in the USA) parade. https://youtu.be/PFCekeoSTwg

Wrong Side of Heaven - Five Finger Death Punch. The video sheds light on the number of Veterans struggling with homelessness and suicide. The numbers are a little out of date and have actually gotten worse, but I became a fan of this band because they decided to do this video. It's very powerful.
