Re: Operation Bodenplatte (the real story?)

In fact, they could not surrender, and FDR's stance in Tehran effectivelly cut down any possible peace talks.
As for Galland, this is a person that deserves a honest biography, which would debunk a few myths around him. Hard to say without a proper research into structure of command, but doubtless he was one of the key figures responsible for the collapse of the Luftwaffe.
