E. Topp musical secret! v1.0
=====================

From the read me:
Brazil is a very interesting place. This big country received people from all the places of the world like all the others countries in Americas, mainly in the end of 1800´s to early 1900´s. These people comes here to escape from the hunger and misery that dropped over Europe and Asia mainly after the first world war. They come to work on the land and to build their families in peace.

The germans had and have a big comunity here in south of Brazil.

The years passed and a new war put its shadow over the Europe again.
Even Brazil, a so distant place, now is building his Expeditionary Force to fight in the distant countries of Europe...

In may 1943, Erich Topp received a strange package from Brazil. From a very special relative which years ago start his life here in Brazil. This package had only one big 45 rpm vinil called "Canção da Força Expedicionária Brasileira" and a small letter with these few lines (translated from the german)

"Dear uncle Erich Topp,
This is a small gift to you from Brazil. This is a beutiful song from the Brazilian Army. The brazilian soldiers, which will fight this war in Italian land.
This military song is so beautiful and speaks so much about Brazil that I should like to present it to you. Hopes that you like it.
Long life to you, our family and for the Faderland.
Marleen."

-My charmer Marleen, how could I miss you? And also Lili, your friend?
Erich, visibly tired and with his eyes full of tears, looked at that vinil for a second, pick up some wine, fire up a cigar and then quickly put it in the Gramophone. His eyes closed after few minutes...a new patrol will start some hours late and he needs to rest a bit...

The final of this history is very easy to know...this is why this beautiful brazilian military song could be listened in some german uboats after 1943!

================================================== =========
Well, just kidding, this history obviously never happened but this song is really very beautifull and speaks about the humble but brave brazilian soldiers that fought in Italy from 1944 until the end of the war. I also provide some links (in portuguese, sorry, but this is the intention - curiosity!) about the uboats sunk in brazilian coast and also the brazilian ships that were sunk in WWII. Interesting is that some of then were sunk by italian submarines!

Hopes that you like it guys (and also excuse me for the little joke, but we deserve to have some soft moments, no? Also excuse me by my english LOL). The song is in mp3 and ogg format, ready to be put on the gramophone folder if you like it. This is the original 1943 first record.
