==Origins of the name==
The name Wagner (pron: ''VAHG-nər'') is actually a tip of the hat to American military forces depicted in the [[Francis Ford Coppola]] film, ''[[Apocalypse Now]]'' which uses in the film score music from Act III of [[Richard Wagner]]'s ''Die Walkure'' (the Body Carrier) depiction of warrior maidens carrying the bodies of slain heroes from the battlefield to Valhalla.
