U.S. Field Artillery

U.S. Field Artillery

U.S. Field Artillery is a patriotic military march of the U.S. Army written in 1917 by John Philip Sousa. The trio is the "Cassions Go Rolling Along", and is often sung by the band members in the first playing of the trio. Part A is not repeated and the trio is only played twice, following style IABBCDC.

Today, the song is the official song of the U.S. Army and is called "The Army Goes Rolling Along."
