    US Armed Forces Service Songs & Lyrics Researched and written by Mike Concannon Captain US Navy (Retired) Webmaster MOAA Western New York Chapter This narrative discusses the history and associated lyrics of the official or quasi-official songs of each individual service. An audio file can be played by clicking on the music icon which is contained on the page of that individual service. • The audio files require use of MS Windows Media Player or Similar; most computers will activate Media Player (or other audio program) and play the music file automatically when the icon is “clicked” • Songs and Backgrounds are discussed in the order of service seniority US Army “The Army Goes Rolling Along” (informally known as "Those Caissons Go Rolling" or the "Caisson Song.”) - The rather obscure term "caisson" refers to a two-wheeled cart, attached to a horse-drawn field artillery piece. The caisson carried two extra ammunition chests, a spare wheel and extra limber pole slung beneath. There was one caisson for each artillery piece in a battery. Before “The Caisson Song” was adopted as the official tune of the U.S. Army, it was the proud anthem of the U.S. Field Artillery Corps. During a long march in the Philippines, Lieutenant Edmund L. “Snitz” Gruber overheard an officer roar “Come on! Keep ‘em Rolling!” Gruber was suddenly inspired, and that night, wrote the now-famous melody. Fellow soldiers helped with the lyrics and soon all six regiments of the U.S. Field Artillery had adopted “The Caisson Song” as a popular marching tune. The song became a chart-topper during World War I, selling 750,000 copies.

  • 2009 President's Report
    SOCIETY OF SPONSORS OF THE UNITED STATES NAVY PRESIDENT’S REPORT MAY 2008—MAY 2009 (I have represented the Society at 8 christenings and 7 commissionings since the May 2008 Annual Meeting; additionally, sponsors have participated in 3 keel authentications. Don’t forget to visualize these special events---and maybe attend one next year!) Following our Centennial Year Annual Meeting on May 8, I departed for Bath Maine. There on May 10, 2008, a blustery but sunny day at Bath Iron Works (BIW), STOCKDALE (DDG-106), named for a great American hero and Naval Officer, Vice Admiral James B. Stockdale, was christened by his widow, Mrs. Sybil Stockdale, assisted by her Maid of Honor and eldest grand daughter, Elizabeth Stockdale. VADM Stockdale was a Medal of Honor recipient as well as a Vice Presidential candidate with Ross Perot. He spent 7 1/2 years as a Prisoner of War. Sybil Bailey Stockdale is a founder of the NATIONAL LEAGUE OF FAMILIES OF AMERICAN PRISONERS AND MISSING IN SE ASIA. She met with Henry Kissinger, President Nixon and even the Viet Nam delegation at the Paris Peace Talks. She was the first wife of an active duty officer to receive the Navy’s Distinguished Public Service Award. With her husband she co-authored the book IN LOVE AND WAR. She is also the sponsor of AVENGER (MCM-1) and a life member of the Society. The four Stockdale sons and several grandchildren shared in the festivities along with some of his fellow POWs. As has often been the case this year, the bottle did not break the first time but BIW was prepared to try again and the second time was a success.
