Army Days

Handsome photo, Dad! What year was this taken? I'm thinking maybe 1998? 2005? Or maybe it was 2010?

I thought you might like some music to go with that picture! How's this song? Let me know if you'd like me to find a particular song for YankeePoodle.

"The Caisson Song" ("The Caissons Go Rolling Along"), the original unofficial US Army song. Composed in 1908, "The Caisson Song" quickly became popular among the US Army - especially in the Field Artillery. The song was the basis for John Philip Sousa's "US Field Artillery" and later, "The Army Goes Rolling Along" (the official US Army Song). Complete with lyrics, this singalong version of "The Caisson Song" is performed by the US Army Chorus.
