Following in the footsteps of this New York Times report on the US military's weirdly technical strategic deployment of hundreds of rock bands— which the Army officially calls "multiple objective music performance teams with targeted musical styles"—Mother Jones has compiled 10 music videos by Army, Marine and Navy combat rockers.

A couple other favorites are below, and the full collection is at Mother Jones.
