"The Invincible Eagle" is an American military march composed in 1901 by John Philip Sousa and dedicated to the 1901 Pan-American Exposition held in Buffalo, New York.[1] Sousa began composing the march during an evening train trip between Buffalo and New York City, sketching his ideas in a pocket notebook.[1][2]
