Luftwaffe Air & Ground Crew 1939–45
Author: Robert F Stedman
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1782006850
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
The Luftwaffe, honed in the Spanish Civil War, played a vital part in Germany's 'Blitzkrieg' victories in 1939-41. Badly overstretched by war on three fronts in 1942-44, it was crippled by an incompetent commander-in-chief, the losses among experienced aircrew, and shortage of fuel. In 1944-45 it faced a final battle of attrition in skies ruled by the Allies as the Eastern and Western pincers closed on the Reich; but until the very end the dwindling band of veteran pilots among them the greatest 'aces' the world has ever known presented a potent threat. This fact-packed review of Luftwaffe uniforms and flying kit is illustrated with rare personal photos, insignia charts, and two dozen meticulously detailed colour figures.

One Mo' Time

Pages : 134
Book Description
One Mo' Time is the story of one crew's 35 Strategic Bombing Missions in a B-17 Flying Fortress during World War II. The Details of the missions I describe are from a diary I kept. Some details I have omitted. I am not a prude in any way, but men living on the brink of death act differently than in their normal lifestyle. Therefore, this is rather a story - the fears, the laughter, the tears - of men who fought a war.
