May I have Gott mit uns as my signature please? The Wehrmacht soldiers wore the phrase on their belts during WWII, just in-case a few of you didn't know what I was speaking of.

PS- I know how to place an signature! I'm not sure of the rules with signatures with something relating to WWII Germany.
 
"Gott mit uns" is far older then WWII, so I can't see any problems using that one in your signature.
As an example Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden used it as far back as early 1600's during the Thirty Years' War as a motto/field password, the Germans started using it later then that so it's just yet another thing they copied.
I also seem to remember that it may have been used as a battle cry as far back as the Roman empire as well, but it was not in German then of course... :smil:
