Szpilman's son, Andrzej Szpilman, has long called for Yad Vashem to honor Wilm Hosenfeld as a Righteous Among the Nations, non-Jews who risked their lives to rescue Jews. Along with him, the Szpilman family and thousands of others are asking that Hosenfeld be recognized in this way for his acts of kindness throughout the war.
In October 2007 Wilm Hosenfeld was honored by the president of Poland with a Commander's Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta

Wilhelm Hosenfeld; May 2, 1895 in Mackenzell, Hessen-Nassau, Germany--August 13, 1952 near Stalingrad), originally a teacher, was a German army officer who rose to the rank of captain by the end of the war. He helped to hide or rescue several Poles, including Jews, in Nazi-occupied Poland. He is most remembered for saving Polish pianist and composer Władysław Szpilman from death in the ruins of Warsaw.

On 16 February 2009 Yad Vashem announced that Capt. Wilm Hosenfeld would be posthumously recognized as Righteous Among the Nations. On 19 June 2009 Israeli diplomats presented Hosenfeld's son Detlev with the award in Berlin.

It's Papirossen, in Yiddish, "Cigarettes" in English. It's a WWII ghetto song. Not sure the bad, but you can find it on itunes. I want to say "Songs of the Jewish Resistance."
