I saw it.  It does look good though.

I doubt it's intended audience had any idea it's an exclusively NAVY tune.

Has anyone noticed the very stylized new USAF recruiting
commercial?

As background music, they have a couple of women lilting
the melody to 'Oh Shenandoah.'

The irony of this is that 'Shenandoah' is rightly a Navy song, being
that it is a sea chanty. If you're British, chances are you know
that as well as an Yank knows that 'Blow the Man Down'
is a chanty.

It's about as appropriate to the USAF as 'Roll the Caissons Along.'

As usual, 'Fly Navy' has had the last laugh, and the Air Force
don't know the joke of it...  :-)
