The civilian troopers sing the song as they exit Fort Benlin at the beginning (Peckinpah was a fan of that film).

The scene where the troop leaves Fort Benlin singing conflicting songs is a parody of the scene from Ford's film, where the troopers ride out singing a regimental march.

The shot of Dundee wading through the crowd of prisoners in Fort Benlin is taken from this film (a scene with John Wayne's character going through the cowboys).

The setting (a Union POW in New Mexico), a battle where Union/Confederate soldiers team up against hostile Indians, and a specific scene where assembled Confederate prisoners defiantly whistle Dixie to their captors.

The scene where they sing "Shall We Gather At The River?" while burying the dead soldiers
