Military Songs

Someone posted the song "Sink the Bismarck" and I immediately thought we needed a cool military song thread.  I'll start with this one, which is my favorite, by Al Stewart.  "Roads to Moscow".  Awesome song

Played by the commander of the Irish Guards Armoured on their push through Belgium during WWII, amongst other things.
