Hi Ms. Judy,
Again you have piqued my curiosity and inquisitiveness. Just where did you read about what music announced the raid on Pearl Harbor? I have been to the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial exhibition in Hawaii many times and no mention is made about Beethoven's Fifth in connection with the bombs and machine-gun strafings on Pearl Harbor. I eagerly await your reply because it is news to me.
Humbly,
Corno Dolce

thanks guys, I've already check out so many of your suggestions and I'm still looking into more of them. When I'm done i'll post as to what I picked. So far though I'll probably be taking those two tracks from Gladiator. Sounds pretty good.

p.s. thanks for the offer Musicalis but I couldn't have you do that! That would be too much trouble. Anyway, the pieces have to be relatively long, but thanks for the offer!

Please enlighten us ...

Hi Krummhorn,
Methinks Ms. Judy might be thinking abot a film that starred Ben Affleck and there is a scene where a military brass band plays, if my memory serves me, *The Star Spangled Banner* just as a raid is commencing. Now, how that *morphed* into *Ludwig's Fifth* - well, lets just say it was very creative thinking - methinks???!!!
Cheers,

Thanks Corno!

Hey, I've seen that film with Affleck ... and you are absolutely correct about the US national anthem being played ... wasn't the military band on the bow of one of the ships at Pearl in that flick?

Hi Krummhorn,
You bet, they were on the bow of the ship. Now, if that scene is historically correct, that I don't know.

Total Annihilation had fantastic battle music. Many victorious battles were remembered because of it.
Not sure of title etc
Found a youtube vid that has the music:
