On furlough in Canada from 1941-1944, James G. Endicott made hundreds of public addresses in which he urged his fellow Canadians to support Chiang Kai-shek’s heroic defense of China in the face of Japanese imperial aggression. The Guerrilla Song (游擊隊歌 you ji dui ge)  was translated and transcribed for a Canadian audience by Jim, who was known to dive into a heartfelt rendition of the musical number, first in Chinese and then in English.   

在1941年至1944年间，文幼章在加拿大休假期间发表了数百次公开演讲，他呼吁加拿大同胞支持蒋介石对中国的英勇防御，以抵抗日本帝国主义的侵略。《游击队歌》由文幼章翻译并改编为适合加拿大观众的版本，他用中文和英文版饱含感情地演唱了这首歌曲。
