ONE-HUNDRED.

This is coolbert:

More popular music as a result of the Ukraine Conflict.
 
A version of the "The Ballad of the Green Beret" from over fifty years ago. Same tune but different lyrics. As appropriate within the context of the Ukraine Conflict.


"ONE HUNDRED WARRIORS, a song dedicated to the Ukrainian army"

See and listen also from a prior blog entry the previous Ukrainian song dedicated to the Bayraktar drone.


Additionally a country & western twangy version of the "Ballad of the Green Beret" courtesy the U.S. Army band. Well done all hands.


"The song was written by then-Staff Sergeant [SSG] Barry Sadler, beginning when he was training to be a Special Forces medic. The author Robin Moore, who wrote the book The Green Berets, helped Sadler write the lyrics and get a recording contract with RCA Records. The demo of the song was produced in a rudimentary recording studio at Fort Bragg, with the help of Gerry Gitell and LTG William P. Yarborough."
