"Para bellum" means prepare for war, coming from the Latin proverb "si vis pacem para bellum " if you want peace prepare for the war. Was the code name of Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionenfabrik with the German War Cabinet, some other people say that it was the DWM telegraphic address (Parabellum Berlin).
