On the soundtrack, the U.S. Army Band plays strains of "You're in the Army Now" and a full version of "The Caissons Go Rolling Along" as the films shows a convoy of trucks and soldiers at work. Then, the scene shifts to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial where band plays "Aura Lee", "Pack Up Your Troubles", and "It's a Long Way to Tipperary". Band members also sing the latter songs, but "Love Me Tender" isn't a number one song yet, so "Aura Lee" just gets a musical treatment. The film concludes with "Over There", played and sung, as news footage shows the Army rolling in to Paris. Written by
