U.S. troops psyched up on a bizarre musical reprise from Vietnam war film "Apocalypse Now" before crashing into Iraqi homes to hunt gunmen on Saturday, as Shi'ite Muslims rallied against the U.S. occupation of Iraq (news - web sites).

This "musical reprise" is from The Ring of Nibelungs , and not from the movie. Definitely the soldiers before going to the war should listen to the whole opera, including reading the libretto.

There they can learn interesting things, like that to make the ring of power to rule the world, one has to renounce the love and hapiness first.

For machine gun firing pace I suggest Ballroom Blitz by the group Sweet.
