I read somewhere a long time ago...what the 4F means...
something about the 4 F's of survival? But all the words were in German?
Am I crazy?
can anyone point me to some links about this 4F as a symbol, but not relating to the band?

The 4 Fs stand for the motto "Frisch, Fromm, Fröhlich, Frei" ("Hardy, God-fearing, Cheerful, Free").
Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, the founder of modern gymnastics, popularized it in the early nineteenth century.
