ARPs - 1969
The Boys Of K Troop
They Broke Through The Jungle, Their Engines All Roaring
No Sabers Where Drawn On This Early Morn
Just The Gleam Of The Sunlight Off Their Sixties Were Shown
Their Dark Blue Scarfs Blew In The Breeze
These Were The Men Of The 11th Cavalry
They Were Known As K Troopers, These Dirty Young Men
Mention Pride And Honor And They'd Just All Grin
No Longer Horses Did They Ride
Rather Their ACAV'S Drove Side By Side
Let Us Not Forget That Blue Scarf With The K
And The Reason We Wear It To This Very Day
Find The Bastards And Pile On
The K Troopers Would Yell
We're All Going To Fiddlers Green
Cause We Spent Our Time In Hell.
Jack Stoddard - 2000
