Guitar songs used by the Axis

Hey guys, do you guys know any guitar songs which were popular during the war? I'm looking for songs about or used by the Wehrmacht and SS? So far I've found Lili Marleen, however I'd like songs more focused on and used by the Axis forces specifically. Thanks guys.

Hello, gnot. Most popular songs (soldiers' songs included) had arrangements for various instruments, guitar included. For example, guitar arrangements for Niel's songs were made mostly by P. Linsner (Erika, Edelweiß, Die Landpartie, etc).

So: guitar songs used by the Axis - are just about all popular songs used by the Axis.

Cheers,
Ivan
