Teufelslied but you're Fighting the Red Army in the Streets of Berlin (1945)
The Battle of Berlin, designated as the Berlin Strategic Offensive Operation by the Soviet Union, and also known as the Fall of Berlin, was one of the last major offensives of the European theatre of World War II.
After the Vistula-Oder Offensive of January-February 1945, the Red Army had temporarily halted on a line 60 km (37 mi) east of Berlin. On 9 March, Germany established its defense plan for the city with Operation Clausewitz. The first defensive preparations at the outskirts of Berlin were made on 20 March, under the newly appointed commander of Army Group Vistula, General Gotthard Heinrici.
When the Soviet offensive resumed on 16 April, two Soviet fronts (army groups) attacked Berlin from the east and south, while a third overran German forces positioned north of Berlin. Before the main battle in Berlin commenced, the Red Army encircled the city after successful battles of the Seelow Heights and Halbe. On 20 April 1945, Hitler's birthday, the 1st Belorussian Front led by Marshal Georgy Zhukov, advancing from the east and north, started shelling Berlin's city centre, while Marshal Ivan Konev's 1st Ukrainian Front broke through Army Group Centre and advanced towards the southern suburbs of Berlin. On 23 April General Helmuth Weidling assumed command of the forces within Berlin. The garrison consisted of several depleted and disorganised Army and Waffen-SS divisions, along with poorly trained Volkssturm and Hitler Youth members. Over the course of the next week, the Red Army gradually took the entire city.
On 30 April, Hitler committed suicide (with several of his officials also dying by suicide shortly afterwards). The city's garrison surrendered on 2 May but fighting continued to the north-west, west, and south-west of the city until the end of the war in Europe on 8 May (9 May in the Soviet Union) as some German units fought westward so that they could surrender to the Western Allies rather than to the Soviets.

      Wouldn't split hairs on the 15 vs 18 differences if not for the cultural significance of the Armalite AR-18/180 as a symbol of resistance. They look similar to most of the world but are very different. The 18/180 uses a short stroke gas piston system vs the 15's direct impingement. The different operating systems even end up effecting the type of stocks each rifle can facilitate. The 18 using the folding stock while the 15's stock doesn't fold because it has a buffer tube that the 18 does not. Even the magazines aren't interchangeable(without modification). So I personally make sure I distinguish the 2 as the AR 15 is famous bc it's used everywhere but the Armalite AR-18 is made famous by free citizens of the Irish Republic fighting their British occupiers. Basically, if the FAL is "the right arm of the free world" then the Armalite(18) is "the right arm of the Irish free state"
