"Warrior" by Kid Rock

"Citizen Soldier" by 3 Doors Down

Thought about putting those down, but they're more "Army" than patriotic.  Love'em both though.

This will probably cause debate, but

"Bodies" Drowning Pool

Why? I envision lots of dead AK47 waving Haji's when I hear it.

 "Flight of the Valkries" kind of hit home with me during the Air Calvary charge in Appocolypse Now.

  "United" by Judas Priest is also kind of cool.

Check youtube for thes 2 1980s recruiting videos set to music. Enter search for We were there  Army and My Hometown  Freedom isn't free. They got a lot of play around the time I got commissioned and sent overseas.

"Independence Day" -  Martina Mcbride

Actually, this song is about a woman killing her abusive husband.  (I thought the same until my dear wife pointed this out - I made sure I bought her flowers)  ;D

I used to play "Another One Bites The Dust" by Queen in my Walkman in the helo to get me up for air assaults.  Not necessarily patriotic, but it sure gets one's blood flowing.

There's a song by a singer/songwriter I really like named John Gorka.  He wrote a song called "Writing in the Margins," about a soldier in Iraq writing home and taking up every space on the page he can get words on.

"The CAP is Always on the Go!" is our anthem and a song which doesn't hold up. It's just an awful and arcane piece but a showstopper at CAP event as a skit program filler. I've built a 5 minute performance from it.

Some tune-smith amongst us... should work on a new anthem. I would, but frankly could do no better. Laughability rating is not a good metric for an anthem.

Change the lyrics to:Let the Haji's hit the floor

Sigh...  :(  I thought we were talking about patriotic songs. 
Since when did patriotism come to equal racism and killing?

'Proud to be an American" is a good patriotic song...
