Song I played "on the march"when deployed.

I remember that song! I must have been ten years old when my Dad took me to the beautiful old Runnymeade ( It was beautiful. Not these Cineplexes we have now ) to see "Battle of the Bulge".
There's a lot Europeans in my area, many of whom came over after the war.
Anyway, when Col. Hessler ( Robert Shaw ) comes in to give a little pep talk to his Troopers, he finds it not necessary because they spontaneously break out in a battle song. He even ordered the
old older burned out soldier sing it!
Even though Dad and I supported the Sherman tank guys, we couldn't help but tap our feet a bit. But, so help me, in that darkened theatre people were stomping their feet and and singing it - loudly - in German! Like a mini-Bund Rally! These guys would only have been about 40 years old, at the time.
Say what you will about World War Two. You must admit they had some great songs!
Anyway, here's to the Iron Fist, wherever you are!
