Gotta set up the punchline here....when I was a youngster, the big show was "American Bandstand."  A segment of American Bandstand, in which two of the dancers in the audience were asked, by host Dick Clark, to rate a new 45 on a 35-to-98 scale. The reason for the choice of range was, according to Clark, because a song was never so bad that it deserved a really low score, and no song was so perfect that it deserved a 100.

Since it was a dance show, there was a bias towards the danceable. When asked about why they rated a song with a good score, often Jane or Bobby's answer was something along the lines of "it's got a good beat and I can dance to it", whilst they chomped on their gum. The phrase made its way into Americana.

Well .... I am rating this "march song" as an absolute "zero": "it's got no merit or beat and I can't march to it"

Well, I haven't heard very many that are worse.

Do a search for "marching jodie" and pick one. It's got to be better than yours.

When you say officer, do you mean Senior Member or Cadet Officer?

Yeah, any of them. I'd dance in a pink tutu in front of the cadets rather than utter that. And I'm a guy...

Panzer Lied was a favorite at CAP Flying Encampment 1971, when riding the bus back to the OU Campus from the Norman Oklahoma Airport.

Still sung today in the Bundeswehr Tank Regiments, some American IACE Cadets received song books.

We would never get away with now.

..and they'd all be looking for something else to do if they kept it up. Throwing the word "abuse" around in a way that can be mis-interpreted by passers-by is just what we need.

I saw that movie when I was a sophomore in high school.  I was taking German in school at the time, and I remember hearing the line: "Und forwarts der Panzer mit mir darin..."  (stomp, stomp!)  I suddenly realized that I understood what they just said, and I was so excited.  it was the first time I had heard a sentence in German outside of class and actually knew what was said.  I felt I had arrived at understanding a foreign languarge.

Seconded. See how you can improve that chant, buddy. Replace it with something better, asap! Preferably something that doesn't draw such a line between senior members and cadets. It's not a productive attitude anyway.

Since he hasn't come back, I'd say that the cadet gets that he screwed up by thinking that was appropriate to post...

In any case, here is an appropriate form of that which you posted.
