"Script error: No such module "Lang"." ("Old Comrades") is the title of a popular German military march by Carl Teike.[1] It is included in the Armeemarschsammlung as HM II, 150.
History
The march was written around 1889 in Ulm, Germany, by military music composer Carl Teike.[2] Teike wrote many pieces for the marching band of Grenadier-Regiment König Karl (5. Württembergisches) No. 123. When bringing his newly composed march to the regiment, the Kapellmeister Oelte simply told him: "We've got plenty enough of musical marches, put this one in the stove!"[2] This episode eventually led to Teike taking his leave of the band and naming the march as "Alte Kameraden". A publisher purchased the song from him for 25 German Goldmark.[3] In 1895, the Nowaweser Kapelle Fritz Köhler premiered the march.[3] Alte Kameraden later became one of the most popular marches in the world.[3] It was played in 1937 at the coronation ceremony for English King George VI.[3] The march can also be heard in the film The Blue Angel (1930).[3] Teike later worked as a police officer but also continued composing military marches.[3]
According to one source, the march became popular among Finnish amateur photography clubs after "kameraden" was mistranslated to "cameramen" in Finnish.[4]
It is the official parade march for the Chilean Air Force's Non Commissioned Officers School. ("Template:Ill").
A music written for the North Korean military parade for the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Workers' Party of Korea on 10 October 2020 quotes the tune of "Alte Kameraden".[5][6]

Old comrades on the march through the country |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
During the attack, things happen fast, |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
During maneuvers, the whole regiment |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
Laughing joking, laughing joking, today is today |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
Old wine gives the strength of youth, |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
Whether in joy, whether in need, |
Script error: No such module "Lang". |
Even if we are old, the heart stays young, |
