Translated in German as "Der Teufelshauptmann." Curious. |

In 1949 the "yellow ribbon" probably did not translate into the contemporary German culture. |

"In 1949 the "yellow ribbon" probably did not translate into the contemporary German culture." Perhaps not, but how in tarnation did Nathan Brittles become the "Devils Captain"? |

That is one of the very few pieces of military music in America that still gets a daily airing, albeit in bastardized form. "Around the block/ she pushed a baby carriage,
She pushed it in the springtime, and the merry month of May,
And if you asked her, why the heck she pushed it,
She pushed for a soldier who was far, far away.
Far away (far away!), she pushed it for that soldier who was far, far away. Behind the door, her daddy kept.a shotgun…." If I heard it once, I heard it a thousand times. |
