Re: Hauptmann Eberspacher's Fw 190 on D-Day

IN his memoires Eberspacher wrote down that Fieldmarschall Sperle said about Eberspachers confrontation with the anglo -american marine fleet / armada : "Der Eberspacher hat sie gesehen" . He was the first to encounter from air the armada on D- Day.

He wondered about the miracle that after D-Day and his mission/battle he was still alive !

He also writes about a brave german machine gunner on top of a church who shoots at his plane and got hit, very close to the city of Tours so he was able to land safely.
