Lyrics

Soldiers, sailors, and airmen Of the Allied Expeditionary Force You are about to embark upon the great crusade Toward which we have striven this many months The eyes of the word are upon you The hopes and prayers of the liberty Loving people everywhere march with you In company with our brave allies, And brothers in arms on another front, You will bring about the destruction of the german war machine. The elimination of nazi tyranni overpressed people's Of europe and security of ourselves in a free world. Your task will not an easy one Your enemy is well trained, Well equip and battle hardened, he will fight savagely But this is year 1944, Much has happen since the nazi triumph in 1940-41 United Nations have inflicted upon The German's great defeat, in open battle Man to man Our air offensive has seriously reduce their streght In the air and their capacity to wage war on the ground Our home front have given us an Overwhelming superiorty in weapons and munitions of war And place our disposal great reserve of train fighting man The tides has turned The free man of the world are marching together to victory I have full confidance in your courage Devotion to duty and skill in battle We will accept nothing less than full victory Good luck And let us all beseach the blessing of Almighty god upon this great and noble undertaking.
