The Edelweiss Pirates, a loosely organized group of youth opposed to the Nazi regime in Germany during World War II, had varying membership numbers. Estimates suggest that they comprised around 2,000 to 3,000 members at their peak, with local groups forming in different cities. However, because the organization was decentralized and informal, exact numbers are difficult to determine. Their membership included mainly teenagers and young adults who rejected Nazi ideology and sought alternative values.
Raindrops and ROSES and blue satin sashes.That would be Edelweiss, not roses.
The lyrics to Edelweiss are (in verses): Edelweiss, Edelweiss, every morning you greet me. Small and White, clean and bright, you look happy to meet me. Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow. Bloom and grow forever. Edelweiss, Edelweiss, bless my homeland forever.
