Colonel Moroney's signature
I thought it would be good to post the origin of Colonel Moroney’s signature moniker.
I believe it was from a German SS unit and it was adopted by the unit in Berlin to promote brotherhood. Both the German and a close English version are below. Col. Moroney always signed his writings with the third verse in German.
Fur Die Sicherheit
Wenn einer von uns mude wird,
Der andere fur ihn wacht--
Wenn einer von uns zweifeln will,
Der andere glaubig lacht--
Wenn einer von uns fallen sollt,
Der andere steht fur zwei--
Denn jedem Kampher gibt ein Gott
Den Kameraden bei.
For The Security
If one of us became tired,
The other watched for him--
If one of us ever doubted,
The other laughed faithfully--
If one of us ever fell in battle,
The other stood for two—
For to every warrior God assigns
A comrade-in-arms
