I'm not so sure about that. One of my old professors at college - who knew
far too much about this kind of thing - told me that, athough the march was
written by a British composer to portray the Luftwaffe in the film, it was
such a good tune, and such a successful pastiche of a German march,
including certain details of orchestration which elude me know, that the
Luftwaffe did in fact adopt it as an official march.
