That is a very nice piece of history you have there. So I thought I'd do a little google searching and perhaps find the song.
I came upon a link that I didn't expect and has nothing to do with the song but it sure had me captured for a while now.
It is a Life magazine but be forwarned that while you see Donald Duck there are also some pictures that some may not wish
to view.

I think you'll find it interesting and I'm going back to search for that song.
You'll need to click the bar at the top. Also note that it starts in the middle pages, so there is a lot before.

It's the traditions song for the Imperial-era 2. Ober-Elsässisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 171 [2nd Upper Alsatian Infantry Regiment No. 171].
Garrisoned at Colmar (which is also referred to in the text), it was part of the Prussian Army's 39th Division which fought at Verdun and the Somme.
