Let me add to this good translation

Terz = Berlin slang for 'fuzz'


I know that underneath laurel wreath with acorns

Not laurel - oak leave wreath ! :wink:


And 'Kuschelrock' was a series of samples with romantic melodies, so I guess softrock works.

Adolf Galland.

1. He survied the war
2. He flew Me 262
3. He told the Obermaier it right in the face "I need a squardron of Spitfires" LOL
4. All the women at his feet. OK that is my real reason.

How could I forget "Hunde wollt ihr ewig leben" Much better flic than Stalingrad. And has a bit of the humor of 08/15. The tranlsation of the title is more like: "Dogs, do you want to live forever?" said by the commander just before a big attak. Check out both movies. Tirola Does...

My vote goes for a Zerstoerer during Westeruebung. At first buddy up with the Gerbirsjaeger and then fight the British and then get sunk, crawl ashore and help the Kameraden kick out the Tommies. :wink:

And don't forget that this material had to be developed, edited, copied and distribiuted to all the cinemas. So 8 or 9 days doesn't sound too bad.
