In the classical form I know there are two tunes interchanging. Very unusual for a marching song. Sounds to me like propaganda music for a war movie.

Heia Safari! has nothing to do with the Africa Corps; it is an old hunting song of our old colony German East Africa (now Tansania), before WWI. We still sang it in this sense with the Boy Scouts in the fifties.
