Move over Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman! Hey, Dorsey Brothers - watch out! Here's some heavy competition coming your way over the airwaves. The Combat! Canteen proudly brings you the latest and greatest platters from...
Your Combat! Hit Parade:
- The call to armchairs (and
sofas, recliners, and floors)! It's Tuesday night! (Combat!
Opening theme.)
- No, this wasn't sung in the
mental ward but was a British bomb shelter standard. (Here We
Go Gathering Nuts in May)
- Brother, this’ll put ya to
sleep for sure. (Fais Dodo)
- When ya don't want to listen
to a lot of drool, this'll send ya! (Just for the Record.)
- The Official Kraut Deserter's
Anthem. (Show Me the Way to Go Home)
- This little ditty works
best on a captive audience. (Du, Du Liegst Mir Am Herzen)
- THE number 1 hit song in
war-torn France. Since it was given away free with every bottle
of shampoo purchased, almost every home (and garden) had this record.
(French tune)
- Sergeant Saunders' sensitive,
tender love song. (Roll Me Over in the Clover)
- Ya'd think this guy would
shop at the PX before it closed. Quit poundin' on the door and buy
your own pen and candle tomorrow, buddy! We open at oh-nine-hundred.
(Au Clair De La Lune)
- A mournful, melancholy song
because it meant ‘so long’ for a whole week. (Combat! closing
theme)
