Stephen R. German folk music (213* d) RE: German folk music 05 Sep 07


I can't see "Kameraden lasst uns singen" as a Nazi song. A Nazi song would glorify the party or express Nazi doctrines. Only the references to tanks and airplanes assure us that the song did not come from some pre-Nazi period. If it could be translated in meter and rhyme, and the words "deutsche Infantrie" revised, could it not have been sung by the infantry of any army in the Second World War?
