Prinz Eugen, der edle Ritter

 "Prinz Eugen, der edle Ritter" (Prince Eugene, the noble knight) is an Austrian-German folksong about the victory of Prince Eugene of Savoy in 1717 during the Austro-Turkish War (1716–1718).^[1] It tells of the bravery of Prince Eugene, his companion Prince Ludwig who lost his life in the battle, and their soldiers in defeating the Turks and recovering the city of Belgrade for the Holy Roman Empire. The oldest known record of the song comes from a handwritten songbook of 1719. The lyricist is unknown.

New from Strelets WSS

 Great box art. I have to admit when I saw the Eureka WSS I wondered if they would work with Strelets? These look good - see the figs at Plastic Soldier Review.
