Of course - as most 'writers' would admit - it would be impossible to put together something like 'Luftwaffe Fighters' without the help of others. But that help 'only' extended to pointing out sources, sending through copies of old correspondence, diary excerpts, photos etc etc. If you're the Belgian 'Phil' then it might interest you to know that I have acquired a certain amount of Armand van Isohoven's vets letters. And as far as I know vW only kept one diary and he definitely didn't write it in English. See the acknowledgements section. As Alfred Price once told me you don't have the space or time to footnote and thank each individual contribution.
