Im translating a ns schesternschaft booklet and I am having trouble translating the exact meaning of their motto: "nicht mitzulieden, mit zukampfen, find wir da." I know this isnt a photo but I wasnt sure where else to post this, so sorry if this is the wrong forum.

The motto of the Schwestern (nurses) could have been: " Nicht mit zu lieben, mit zu kämpfen sind wir da"



A free translation: "Not love love with, (but) to fight with we are here"

thank you for the translation, however where I saw it, the motto was: nicht mitzulieden,mitzukampfen find wir da. Perhaps it is a misprint.

[Gerdan]

I think you could not clearly identify the "old" German writing/letters.

It must be the letter "b" (lieben) and the letter "s" (sind) wir da.

Here an example of the old German Fraktur :

In the first line you can read "Die Deutsche Schrift" - see the letter "s" in the word "Deutsche"
it looks lieke "f" but is "s".
