Sgt. Helsi, the Jumping Jack Flash, says:

Join the jockstrap army and see my world!

For the army’s marching song, compare these verses from Tom Lehrer’s “We Are the Folk Song Army” (from That Was the Year that Was (1965)):

We are the folk song army
Every one of us cares
We all hate poverty, war, and injustice
Unlike the rest of you squares

… So join in the folk song army!
Guitars are the weapons we bring
To the fight against poverty, war, and injustice
Ready, aim, sing!

(You can listen to  a concert performance of the whole song here.)
