Thread Name: WWII songs
Subject: RE: WWII songs
I don't what happened to my last thread?? It seems that a chunk of it didn't print out.

Back to the Errol Flynn film where he won the war single handed!!

The song started with the line: "From the Halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli."

As a war orphan in London during the blitz, The US army threw a party for a whole gang of kids like me. We were warned not to sing, "Yankee Doodle Dandy" It was considered politically incorrect - not that I knew what that meant at the time!

Has any one mentioned "Bless 'Em All"?

Do you remember Bud Flanagan & Chesney Allen and their song "Who Do You Think You are Kidding Mister Hitler?"

It was of course the theme music to "Dad's Army."
