In the military, especially during a long march or run, the Sergeant Rock will lead a song called a cadence call, military cadence, or jody song to keep his subordinates' spirits up as they train, march, or work around their base or encampment. The songs cover a variety of topics, including the civilian at home who's sleeping with your significant other (i.e. Jody), the amount of badass your service or unit has compared to the other services or units, the hazards unique to your particular unit or service, your own vulgar and violent tendencies, et cetera. Although many of the songs are call-and-response, not all of them are. However, they are always sung to the rhythm of the task at hand. |

Girls und Panzer: Yukari and Erwin sing an old Japanese marching song when walking the long way around to spy on Pravda, "The Snowy March" ("Yuki no Shingun"). It creates something of a dissonant scene because while Yukari and Erwin are having fun and cheerily singing, the song's lyrics are rather depressing (so depressing that the song was banned by the Japanese army in WWII). | |

The Simpsons: There's one one when Principal Skinner rejoined the Army. Skinner disapproved of the version the recruits already knew, and decided to make it more educational. There's also a parody one in the episode where Bart and his friends went to war against Nelson: There's another reference in the episode where the kids go to military school. "Company L? But they smell!" "Yes, we've all heard the song." |

In the novelization of Wishbringer, the Boot Patrol (at this time the alternate version of Festeron's police force rather than a force of enormous summoned boots) likes loud cadences to accompany their near ceaseless patrol for curfew-breakers. The cadences are seemingly impromptu, usually appropriate to their immediate activity and serve to warn people of their approach or pursuit. They do this regardless because they really like this trope; that in turn is enforced because they're part of a ritualized struggle for control over the town's dominant nature and are far too effective whenever people don't hear them coming. | |

Lampooned in the movie Stripes, when Bill Murray and Harold Ramis, after joining the Army, begin using "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" as a jody during their first march. Bizarrely, it works really well. Not only the right rhythm to it, it even has a call-and-response section.... Reportedly, some armed forces units are actually using this song as a jody now, because of the use in this film and how surprisingly well it worked. |

The late Captain Jack, of DanceDanceRevolution fame, and his (well, ''their'') eponymous song. Makes sense, since Frankie Gee (the lead singer) was a soldier in the US Army, and the military theme was pretty much his entire stage persona. His trademark song is adapted from a very common military jodie, as well as his title. | |

Warhammer 40,000 has a galaxy's worth of potential hymns and chants for armies of the Imperium, but the only lyrics provided are the six hundred and sixty-six words of the Grey Knights' Canticle of Absolution and the Sisters of Battle's "Fede Imperialis." Fortunately where the rulebooks fail, Dawn of War provides. | |

In the film An Officer and a Gentleman, the Navy officer candidates, led by their own Drill Sergeant Nasty chant: The film also features the Real Life military classic "Napalm Sticks to Kids". Network television showings generally use an alternate take. When Gunnery Sergeant Foley gives Mayo Training from Hell, he gets to chant the salty "Casey Jones was a son-of-a-bitch". |

The theme music for the first and second seasons of The Unit was a remixed cadence call, "Fired Up, Feels Good." Somewhat snicker-worthy in that they used a Marine cadence call for a show about Army special ops. Oops. A different theme for the next two seasons. | |

In The Bridge on the River Kwai, the iconic "Colonel Bogey March" is whistled in an aversion enforced by the widow of the composer who wrote the original instrumental tune during World War I, as the lyrics added during World War II—a Hail to the Thief-style "The Villain Sucks" Song about Adolf Hitler and Those Wacky Nazis—were deemed too crude. This makes the tune an example of both With Lyrics and Forgotten Theme Tune Lyrics at once! | |
