Soldiers of the SS Division "Prinz Eugen" singing on a break during mountaineering training. According to the original photo caption, what they are singing is "Edelweiss" – a prewar love song, particularly popular among mountain troopers (since the same flower also served as the insignia of their troops).

Raspevani vojnici SS-divizije "Princ Ojgen" na pauzi tokom obuke iz planinarenja. Prema originalnom natpisu fotografije, ono što pevaju je "Runolist" – predratna ljubavna pesma, posebno popularna među brdskim lovcima (jer je isti cvet služio i kao oznaka njihovih jedinica).
