If you miss the link StdDev gave above, the song is also included in Beery's Real U-Boat mod. Even if you don't want the rest of the RUB package, you can download and unpack it, then find 'Fanfara_01.wav' in the Sound directory. Put it in the same place in your SH3 installation, and the band will play 'Muß i' denn'.
I've meant to ask this before, and this seems a good time to do it: my previous careers started in Wilhelmshaven where there was a band, but now I'm based at Kiel, where there doesn't seem to be one. Is that correct?
An interesting tidbit of information: this was the traditional song played when a vessel was leaving for a long patrol, and I remember reading once that it caused some trouble with the Bismarck. The Kriegsmarine obviously wanted to keep their plans a secret, but when 'Muß i' denn' was played as Bismarck left the harbour, everyone present realized that she was actually going to try to break out into the Atlantic rather than simply re-basing to Norway. After she was sunk, there was some criticism of the choice of music as a security breach.
