Geoff: Those are the Gitz Rice lyrics. The score/count is now at four wars and two songs… I think...

Lighter: Just now noticed our sources are different; zinger of an extra paragraph at the end here:

“...Alan Lomax, of the Folk Music Division of the Library of Congress, is in charge of the program. He entertained at a White House dinner for King George VI and Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain in 1939 with cowboy songs. He played his own accompaniment on the guitar. Trainees from CCC camps in this vicinity will take part in the program.”
