Soldier training chant from Vietnam
era
The following, originally a product of
the Vietnam era, has been resurrected for training purposes in
every war since and is an example of the kind of morale building
that has been judged appropriate to the formation of an American
soldier:
Shell the town and kill the people
Drop the napalm in the square
Do it on a Sunday morning
While they're on their way to prayer
Aim your missiles at the schoolhouse
See the teacher ring the bell
See the children's smiling faces
As their schoolhouse burns to hell
Throw some candy to the children
Wait till they all gather round
Then you take your M-16 now
And mow the little fuckers down
