    This song originates from a priest at Pearl Harbor. On one of the damaged ships the men had formed an ammunition line to get ammo up to the guns, and when they were getting tired, the ship's Deacon came up, joined in the line and yelled "Praise the Lord, and pass the Ammunition!" and it just kind of picked up from there.

    My military career encompassed 1973 to 1993. During that time, we still honest-to-God sang this song. We didn't know all the words, but we were creative.

    I like this song, it speaks how I feel about teammates in Battlefield who don't give me ammunition.

    I can imagine this song being sung by soldiers in their trenches in a musical movie vibe. One man passes a box of bullets to the next and the next all the way up to the machine gunner while ducking in the trench.

    Here in remembrance of the 155th Royal Artillery Battery, who sang this song loudly as they gave their lives in 1943 at Sidi Nsir.

    Rest In Peace to my boys on the USS Oklahoma which is where this saying originated from when we was hit in her ammo feed mechanism by a Japanese Zero on December 7th 1941
