"The collective experience has pulled the division together. On the memorable 13th of March in 1938 we marched across that border put between the German clans by Versailles, we were at the front when the Führer guided his homeland into the Reich. We were at the front again in October of 1938 when the German Army brought freedom to the brothers in the Sudetenland. And for the third time we followed the call of the Führer in September 1939; unparalleled was the triumphal campaign of our First Mountain Division through Galicia all the way to Lemberg..."
