Could anyone tell me what does it exactly says?

Also is the "comrade" - singular or plural? If plural, what would be the singular form of the sentence?

Thank you!

Meinem einzigen
und besten
Kameraden auf
dieser Welt!
- Wie geht die Sonne
uns unter -

…..!

Ostern 1950 in
Flensburg!

------------------

As it says “Meinem .. Kameraden”, it is the singular form (Dativ, I think).

When I compare the "Welt = world" with the "Wie" as claimed by Hiltraut I doubt that this is correct. Looks rather like "Nie = never", in my opinion.

Roman, I think you are absolutely correct! Also, it would make much more sense!
So I correct my transcription from "Wie geht die Sonne...." to "Nie geht die Sonne...".

Hiltraut,

I took the time to search for this slogan and low and behold this is what came up:
"Uns geht die Sonne nicht unter. Lieder der Hitler-Jugend.= The sun will not set/ disappear for us. Songs of the Hitlerjugend"

If the writer meant this slogan?
