GUEST,Dave Hollowood	Folk Music Dying? (97* d)	RE: Folk Music Dying?	10 Jun 03
Yeah, I guess I'm not too bad off, I know most of them too. Marine Corps Hymn? I always thought it was an anthem. Hymns were always prayers offered to music. Marines don't need prayers, if they're offered it's for the people they're about to encounter (with extreme prejudice!). No offense to any of you Marines out there, Semper Fi! It makes a great geography lesson. It also points out that we've always had problems with backward little third world countries! I'm rather suprised the other service "hymns" didn't make the list. Anchors Away, Wild Blue Yonder, Semper Paratus ("Always Prepared" - Coast Guard - Ain't we just grown up boyscouts!). I believe the caisson song refers to "When the caissons go rolling along"? Is that the "official" Army hymn?
