I recently found this song, and I think it’s quite appropriate for the Memorial Day weekend.

Vera Lynn, 92, is a popular British vocalist whose career flourished during World War II, when she was nicknamed “The Forces’ Sweetheart”. She is considered one of the major entertainers during World War II.

Music: “Farewell of Slavianka”, 1912 Russian March

Edited to add: I feel bad for not having honored May 9th, the day of victory over Nazi Germany, celebrated in the Eastern Bloc countries. So here’s an old Russian war-time march. My favorite! 🙂
