The Silver Legion of America, commonly known as the Silver Shirts, was an underground American fascist organization founded by William Dudley Pelley that was headquartered in Asheville, North Carolina and announced publicly on January 31, 1933. The group was effectively dissolved on December 8, 1941, the same day the United States declared war on Japan, when police called for the open arrest[clarification needed] of any individuals associated with the group.

This song was not made for the Silver Legion, as you can tell by the lyrics. It was written by the band "Dresden" on the album "Call of the Blood", 2002,
Lyrics:
Raise Up the Flag! And stand as one together!
Our troops will march with sturdy, iron tread!
Though comrades fall, shot down by leftists and reaction!
They march with us in spirit to the fight! x2
Clear off the streets, the Brown Battalion marches!
The streets are free, the Brown Battalions rule!
The sacred flag brings hope to our oppressed millions
The day for freedom and for bread is here x2
At last the call to struggle rings out loudly!
And we're prepared, we storm into the fight!
As Hitler's flag is waving proudly in the bright skies!
Our slavery ends forever in this land! x2
Raise Up the Flag! And stand as one together!
Our troops will march with sturdy, iron tread!
Though comrades fall, shot down by leftists and reaction!
They march with us in spirit to the fight! x2
