I just rewatched FMJ yesterday, and there's one cadence where he's saying something like "Jerry jerdy derpta herdy jery jerdy juuup!" and I rewound and put on subtitles but there was nothing. Not even the film makers know what the hell he was singing.

Note: when issuing drill commands, it is customary to use a significant push with the diaphragm when calling "ARMS," to where you pronounce it like "HARMS," ant to where it actually sounds like "HUAH." The same with calling "MARCH" and "HALT" in any marching commands (i.e. Company halt, mark time march, forward march, etc...)

The commands he calls in the drill formation: Left shoulder arms, port arms, platoon halt.
