GUEST,In good company	Soldiers songs calling officers (64* d)	Soldiers songs calling officers	03 Oct 16
Elsewhere someone asked for a thread to be started giving examples of songs sung by soldiers that are dismissive of their leaders. The examples given are, and I quote from the other thread, "Hanging on the old barbed wire" (British Army) - typical example of Forces "Black Humour", same as "An Airman Lay Dying" (Royal Flying Corps), also "Sweeping" (Royal Navy). Any more? They must be 'of the time' rather than written after the event. The ones above relate to WW1 specifically but I guess any war, or any other situation, will do. Cheers Dave
