7 - "Load-em up, move-em out, raw hide!"

Back during the Vietnam war, we had a Spectre squadron at our base in Thailand, which was spectacularly sucessful. And their themesong was "Ghost Rider's in the Sky". After a while, it caused such a ruckus of enthusiasm, particularly when played in the clubs on base, that the Wing Commander had to ban the song, just to preserve some order amoung the troops.

I guess "Ghost Riders" is an obvious song for this baby, because I just looked at the picture of inside the AC-130 and that was the song that popped up in my head.
