Chanson composée à partir d'un poème écrit durant la seconde guerre mondiale par le lieutenant Zirnheld, parachutiste de la France Libre.
Written by a Free French officer during WW II, the airborne soldier's prayer was wedded to an adapted Napoleonic marching song. - With thanks to Philippe Pierson for the English and French commentary.
