He's obviously bummed about being re-assigned to 11./JG 2, a Höhenstaffel, flying the 109G-1. He's even more bummed about that unit being transferred to North Africa, and eventually being subsumed by JG 53.
It's a quality book, just like the other biographies by the same publisher, namely Rall, Lützow, Falck, and Zorner.
