Excellent. The only verse I'd change is this:

The brave Australians quickly swore they'd join us in the ranks; Yes Canada and Britain said "We'll both stand by the Yanks!"; And the free men of the future shall forever owe them thanks, Let's all go marching on!

Substitute Japan for Canada as their support was quicker and more unconditional.

"Canada" fits better metrically, however.

I like the song.

This is terrific, AS! thank you for writing it. Vigilianteman, you're right about Canada. People here are grieving with us but they're not as excited about our response. I'm a writer & this weekened I wrote an article about that & submitted it to the paper here--if it gets printed, I'll post it.
