They say that in the Army the coffees mighty fine, looks like muddy water and tastes like turpentine. HOOAH!!

I've been out since 2006, every time I see or hear a helicopter I sing "I hear the choopers hovering, they are hovering over head, they come to collect the wounded, they come to collect the dead, airborne rangers"

[gordonsani]

"Someone ain't gonna make it"
"The weak little heart can't take it" 😂😂❤💯

"C130 rollin down the strip" is by far my favorite...best treadmill music they make

Cadence is also about breathing and conditioning especially double times if u sing while running your obviously going to be in good shape.

That was my Company back at Fort Huachuca during my AIT training!!! Beautiful base and I miss those views so much! Great Drill Sergeants and PT was always a great time there!

I was in the Air Force 1962 marching was a challenge but remember. I am 82 and remember. I like this thanks.

Tim Dunnigan has two awesome playlists of cadences and my BCT Class LOVED hearing fresh cadences after months of the same old same old. If you're thinking about joining PRACTICE these and write them down, everyone will love you for singing something new and that little spark of hope is what some of your fellow trainees need to keep pushing through

Some of my favorites are the ones that pick on other units. “Down by the river” easily comes to mind.

Thank you all for your service. God Bless you and God Bless America. Stay safe.

Cadence is so motivating, especially while running. Often times, it was the only thing that got me through a really long run! That left foot hitting the ground in cadence is just so motivating.

I was culinary and attached to infantry unit and my D.S. got us using a full metal jacket cadence. After we got back to our bunk and we had down time we had a good laugh.

I am a US Army veteran and I understand this very well! And I was in in the the early 1980s.

Cadence stopped being cool when they banned cursing. It’s all about feelings.

Recognize those mountains and buildings instantly and all I say is that i miss those Arizona sunrises and sunsets.

“Down by the river we took a little walk we ran into delta we kick we pushed them we threw them in the river”

My sister and brother in law are both in the navy and they always start singing the cadence that they used in boot camp!

Your momma, your daddy, your brother, your sister, the dog, the cat, the fish was home when you you left!

I'll never forget my Harmony Church days
"PICK UP YOUR WEAPON AND FOLLOW ME, I AM THE AIRBORNE INFANTRY "

I always loved marching to a cadence, however tedious it may have been back then. Been a long time and I haven’t forgotten my Drill Sergeants, SFC Melendy, and SFC Thompson! Or Mad Dog and Mad Mel as they told us! Damn good NCO’s!
