Old Alliances Die Hard: UPDATED

                        This is the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra Playing Panzerlied. (Japan TV 2015)



I received a reply email from Dale in Ohio with another interesting video of the TPO playing the intro to the 1977 film Cross of Iron. Check it out if you are fan.

  5. Reminds me of John Phillip Sousa's work. No wonder the armed services have bands.

  6. edutcher,

    No, the Krauts did not have all the good marching songs. We have some great ones too, i.e. John Philip Sousa "The March King".
