Currently, the song would have to have original copyright posted in 1922 or earlier. Keep that in mind, or the RIAA WILL COME SWOOPING IN IN THEIR BLACK HELICOPTERS AND KI. . .
Earlier than 1927

I have found lyrics from 1927 that refer to the tune as "Well know soldiers song"

You
might
be OK. Unless someone in the RIAA decides that they
updated
the copyright somewhere between then and now.

Nobody has taken up my challenge to identify the tune. Here is a hint: not even the RIAA is going to claim ownership.

But the meter seems to fit `Onward Christian Soldiers'
