Jock Auld Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Guys,While helping my wife with one of her customers collection/deliveries, I met a rather nice bloke, when we went again to deliver the finished item he rather kindly gifted me this scroll with the words of the song which they still use today. Turns out he is quite high up in the BW, Lt Gen Jacobson and he knows a few of my old bosses as well. He is a thoroughly nice bloke and very down to earth. His wife is lovely too she is an ex British Officer, quite unusual for them to have married but a nicer couple you would struggle to find.I just need a nice frame now and to get it on the wall. As an aside there are a lot of versions of this catchy tune on youtube, I have not found a version with the 3rd verse being sung yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Thrust VI Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 VERY NICE! In 1963, West German units at Wildflecken often sang traditional songs while marching. One of those songs, as I recall, was named Erika. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jock Auld Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 Looks to be 5 verses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernhard H.Holst Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) Hello Jock. Reading the lyrics now I believe the first two verses is what we sang. After those it becomes too serious..... Bernhard H. Holst Edited December 8, 2015 by Bernhard H.Holst spelling error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
