It is associated with all current airborne units, including the 101st Airborne Division, the 82nd Airborne Division, the 173rd Airborne Brigade and 4th Brigade Combat Team (Airborne) of the 25th Infantry Division, and the 120th CTS (United States) as well as British airborne units. It is known as "Mancha Roja" (Spanish for "Red Stain") in airborne units from multiple Latin American countries. In Spain it is called "Sangre en las cuerdas" ("Blood upon the risers" in English).\nThe song is also a cautionary tale on the dangers of improper preparation of a parachute jump. The protagonist does everything right, but forgets to hook up his static line which would automatically deploy his main parachute; upon discovering this error during the jump, he deploys his reserve chute in bad falling position with disastrous results. As the reserve chute is stored in a belly bag on the World War II-era rig, deploying it in a bad falling position could easily lead to an accident, not unlike the one described in the song. "Risers" are the four straps that connect the suspension lines of the parachute canopy to the parachute harness.\n\nLYRICS (ENGLISH):\nHe was just a rookie trooper and he surely shook with fright,\nHe checked off his equipment and made sure his pack was tight;\nHe had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar,\nYou ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\n"Is everybody happy?" cried the Sergeant looking up,\nOur hero feebly answered, "yes" and then they stood him up;\nHe jumped into the icy blast, his static line unhooked,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nHe counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock,\nHe felt the wind, he felt the cold, he felt the awful drop,\nThe silk from his reserves spilled out, and wrapped around his legs,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nThe risers swung around his neck, connectors cracked his dome,\nSuspension lines were tied in knots around his skinny bones;\nThe canopy became his shroud; he hurtled to the ground.\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nThe days he'd lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind,\nHe thought about the girl back home, the one he'd left behind;\nHe thought about the medic corps, and wondered what they'd find,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nThe ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild,\nThe medics jumped and screamed with glee, rolled up their sleeves and smiled,\nFor it had been a week or more since last a 'chute had failed,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nHe hit the ground, the sound was "SPLAT", his blood went spurting high;\nHis comrades, they were heard to say "a hell of a way to die!"\nHe lay there, rolling 'round in the welter of his gore,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more!\n\nThere was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the chute,\nIntestines were a-dangling from his paratroopers suit,\nHe was a mess, they picked him up, and poured him from his boots,\nAnd he ain't gonna jump no more\n\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nGory, gory, what a hell of a way to die,\nHe ain't gonna jump no more! ····· 1073821

für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher In remembrance of those who fell in both world wars, and those who are currently serving their country.\n\n"I Vow to Thee, My Country" is a British patriotic song, created in 1921, when a poem by Sir Cecil Spring Rice was set to music by Gustav Holst.The origin of the lyric is a poem by diplomat Cecil Spring Rice, which he wrote in 1908 while posted to the British Embassy in Stockholm. Then called Urbs Dei (The City of God) or The Two Fatherlands, the poem described how a Christian owes his loyalties to both his homeland and the heavenly kingdom. The lyrics were in part based upon the motto of the Spring family, from whom Spring Rice was descended.The first verse, as originally composed, had an overtly patriotic stance, which typified its pre-World War I era.\n\nIn 1912, Spring Rice was appointed as Ambassador to the United States of America, where he influenced the administration of Woodrow Wilson to abandon neutrality and join Britain in the war against Germany. After the United States entered the war, he was recalled to Britain. Shortly before his departure from the US in January 1918, he re-wrote and renamed Urbs Dei, significantly altering the first verse to concentrate on the huge losses suffered by British soldiers during the intervening years. According to Sir Cecil's granddaughter, the three verses were never intended to appear together. The original poem consisted of verses 2 and 3, the amended poem of verses 1 and 3.\n\nThe first verse, and the rarely sung second verse, refer to the United Kingdom, and particularly to the sacrifice of those who died during the First World War. The last verse, starting "And there's another country", is a reference to God's kingdom. The final line is based on Proverbs 3:17, which reads "Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace" in the King James Version. ····· 1073811
für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser (God Save Emperor Francis) was originally written as an anthem to Francis II, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and later of Austria. The lyrics were by Lorenz Leopold Haschka (1749--1827), and the melody by Joseph Haydn. It is sometimes called the "Kaiserhymne" (Emperor's Hymn). Haydn's tune has since been widely employed in other contexts: in works of classical music, in Christian hymns, in alma maters, and as the tune of the Deutschlandlied, the national anthem of Germany. The anthem's lyrics change depending on the monarch and in 1854 the lyrics were as follows:\n\nGott erhalte, Gott beschütze\nUnsern Kaiser, unser Land!\nMächtig durch des Glaubens Stütze,\nFühr’ er uns mit weiser Hand!\nLaßt uns seiner Väter Krone\nSchirmen wider jeden Feind!\n|: Innig bleibt mit Habsburgs Throne\n Österreichs Geschick vereint! :| ····· 1073810

für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher "Jingle Bells" is one of the best-known and commonly sung American songs in the world. It was written by James Lord Pierpont and published under the title "One Horse Open Sleigh" in the autumn of 1857. It has been claimed that it was originally written to be sung by a Sunday school choir; however, historians dispute this, stating that it was much too "racy" (and secular) to be sung by a children's church choir in the days it was written.\n\nAlthough originally intended for the Thanksgiving season, and having no connection to Christmas, it became associated with Christmas music and the holiday season in general decades after it was first performed by blackface minstrel performer Johnny Pell in Ordway Hall on September 16, 1857. Some area choirs adopted it as part of their repertoire in the 1860s and 1870s, and it was featured in a variety of parlor song and college anthologies in the 1880s. It was first recorded in 1889 on an Edison cylinder; this recording, believed to be the first Christmas record, is lost, but an 1898 recording also from Edison Records survives.\n\nLYRICS (ENGLISH):\nDashing thro' the snow\nIn a one-horse open sleigh\nO'er the hills we steeply go\nLaughing all the way;\nBells on bob tail ring\nMaking spirits bright\nOh what fun it is to ride and sing\nA sleighing song tonight.\n\n|: chorus :|\nJingle bells, jingle bells,\nJingle all the way;\nOh! what fun it is to ride\nIn a one-horse open sleigh! ····· 107388

für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher The Anthem of the Soviet Union was played for the first time on the Soviet radio at midnight on 1 January 1944. The 1944 lyrics had three different refrains following three different stanzas; in each refrain, the second line was consequently modified with references to friendship, then happiness and finally to glory. Joseph Stalin and the Soviet Union's war against Nazi Germany were originally invoked in the lyrics.With the process of de-Stalinization inaugurated after Stalin's death, the lyrics which referred to Stalin were considered unacceptable and the anthem was performed without lyrics. A notable exception took place at the 1976 Canada Cup ice hockey tournament, where the singer Roger Doucet insisted on performing the anthem with lyrics, after consultations with Russian studies scholars from Université de Montréal and the Soviet team officials. In 1977, to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the October Revolution, revised lyrics, earlier written in 1970 by the original author Sergey Mikhalkov, were adopted. The varying refrains were replaced by a uniform refrain following all stanzas; the line praising Stalin was dropped, as were the lines referring to the Great Patriotic War. ····· 107384
für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher The anthem's lyrics were taken from a poem by Johan Ludvig Runeberg, a Swedish-speaking poet, called ?Vårt land? (Our Land). The song was first sung in 1848 by a student group and became popular in Scandinavia and many of his patriotic poems, including Vårt land were used by promoters of Finnish nationalism. The poem was translated into Finnish some decades later, after Vårt land was well established as a national song, by Paavo Eemil Kajander and became the anthem before 1917 independence.\n\nLYRICS (FINNISH):\n\nOi maamme, Suomi, synnyinmaa,\nsoi, sana kultainen!\nEi laaksoa, ei kukkulaa,\nei vettä rantaa rakkaampaa,\nkuin kotimaa tää pohjoinen,\nmaa kallis isien!\nEi laaksoa, ei kukkulaa,\nei vettä rantaa rakkaampaa,\nkuin kotimaa tää pohjoinen,\nmaa kallis isien!\n\nLYRICS (ENGLISH):\n\nOur land, our land, our Fatherland!\nRing out, dear word, oh sound!\nNo rising hill, or mountain grand,\nNo sloping dale, no northern strand,\nThere is, more loved, to be found,\nThan this — our fathers’ ground!\nNo rising hill, or mountain grand,\nNo sloping dale, no northern strand,\nThere is, more loved, to be found,\nThan this — our fathers’ ground! ····· 107383
für € kaufen ···· The Prussian Marcher Deutschlandlied, ( German: ?Song of Germany?) official national anthem of Germany from 1922 to 1945, of West Germany from 1950 to 1990, and of reunified Germany from 1990.\n\nThe tune of the German national anthem was composed in 1796 by Austrian Joseph Haydn and was first performed in 1797 for the birthday of Holy Roman emperor Francis II; it was called ?Kaiserhymne? (?Emperor’s Hymn?). Its first lines were ?Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser, Unsern guten Kaiser Franz!? (?God preserve Francis the Emperor, Our good Emperor Francis!?). Haydn further developed the theme in his string quartet known as the Emperor Quartet, Op. 76, No. 3. Although the lyrics changed with the names of the emperors, the tune remained in official use until Austria-Hungary collapsed in 1918.\n\nDecades before that happened, however, the tune was adopted by nationalist poet and university professor August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben for use with a new set of lyrics that he wrote in August 1841, urging unity for the crazy quilt of German polities. Although Hoffmann’s song gained steadily in popularity, it did not gain official status until August 11, 1922, when the Weimar Republic adopted the song and its first verse as the German national anthem. It was retained as the anthem of Nazi Germany, along with the party anthem, the Horst Wessel Song. However, during the Nazi era those lyrics took on unfortunate connotations. What was originally intended in 1848 as a call to place the concept of a unified nation above regional differences—with geographic borders marking the extent to which culturally German settlers had spread—became reinterpreted as a justification for German expansionism and misinterpreted by some as a claim to German world hegemony. For this reason, it was banned for a while after World War II, but it was restored in 1951 by West Germany, using officially only the third verse. The song nevertheless remained a matter of controversy. With the fall of the Soviet Union and the opening of the Berlin Wall, however, the reunification of Germany was effected in 1990, and in 1991 the third verse of the ?Deutschlandlied? was declared the national anthem of the restored country.\n\nLYRICS (DEUTSCH):\n\nEinigkeit und Recht und Freiheit\nFür das deutsche Vaterland!\nDanach lasst uns alle streben\nBrüderlich mit Herz und Hand!\nEinigkeit und Recht und Freiheit\nSind des Glückes Unterpfand;\n |: Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,\n Blühe, deutsches Vaterland! :|\n\nLYRICS (ENGLISH):\n\nUnity and justice and freedom\nFor the German fatherland!\nTowards these let us all strive\nBrotherly with heart and hand!\nUnity and justice and freedom\nAre the safeguards of fortune;\n |: Flourish in the radiance of this fortune,\n Flourish, German fatherland! :| ····· 107382
