A Quick question about German to English Translation

Hello,
I'm fairly new to this forum and not sure if I am doing this correctly.
I have recently started collecting Feldpost letters and covers and I need a bit of advice. I have a website that can, more often than not, identify the unit associated with a Feldpost number, but the description is in German, which I do not speak or read. Can anyone tell me what the word Stab means as in "Stab II Infanterie-Regiment 172"? Google translate gives Stab as Rod. What is a Stab?
Thanks in anticipation.
John

" Wenn vor mir ein feindlicher Panzer erscheint, dann Vollgas geben! und ran an den Feind.

Was nützt unser Leben?! Für unseres Reiches Wehr, fürs Hakenkreuz zu sterben ist unsere

höchste Ehr!"

I try to translate:


When an enemy tank apperas, than full throttle and attack the enemy

What is the use of our life?! For our empire's army for the swastika to die is our highest

honour!

Hi Gerdan,

Wasn't this a verse from the song Panzerlied?
