Not sure, if -o works with -exec.

Code:
ssh -v $server find ~/MyDocuments/ -name 'an*.txt' -o -name 'bt*.txt' -o -name 'se*.wav' -exec echo cp {} {}.backup \;

If not, you can use below commands:

Code:
for server in sterverA serverB serverC ; do
  ssh -v $server find ~/MyDocuments/ -name 'an*.txt' -exec echo cp {} {}.backup \;
  ssh -v $server find ~/MyDocuments/ -name 'bt*.txt' -exec echo cp {} {}.backup \;
  ssh -v $server find ~/MyDocuments/ -name 'se*.wav' -exec echo cp {} {}.backup \;
done

		[-n|--no-delete] [endpoint]

DESCRIPTION

       smd-pull performs in the local maildir all the changes that were performed on remote one.

	      Do not propagate deletions

       -t --template-only
	      Just create a template configuration file if none

       endpoint
