    March of the 10th Army (Italy) Poem/Song?


    A pretty neat poem or song not sure which. Not sure if it was written by this soldier as his name and feldpost number are typed on the bottom or given to him, but very interesting nonetheless. He was killed in Italy at the Cassino fighting on March 29, 1944.

    I'll include the english translation below:

    The March of the 10th Army

    Wind and storm is blowing through Olive Groves,
    Be patient Comrade, stay behind Cover,
    Shells are whistling above us, crashing down around us.
    Just think of Home, far away,
    who want to hear about your deeds.

    Monte Cassino, Anzio, light up the sky
    And will never vanish
    Miles high Abruzzian Mountains,
    Guard you with heaviest weapons.

    Shells are whistling above us, crashing all around us, we
    defending our homeland, far far away. We are mowers of
    bloody seeds.

    We are here in south where we have been ordered
    We are bounded together, and Mountains will burst and
    death will be with us, that tells of our deeds.

    Shells whistle above us, in Storm across the valley
    Crashing down around us, my dear old Homeland so far
    away.
    All soldiers will honor you.

    Let the storm blow over Valley and Hill, we stand fast
    despite all the danger.
    The Swastika flag is our holy flame, we all gather around
    it one day

    Shells whistle above us, across valley and hills, crashing
    around us, oh Holy Germany, my eternal Land Fuhrer,
    Folk and Soldier.
