Re: Luftwaffe Eagle

I've just finished reading the book, which I thought was very well written and gave a good insight into the character/personality of some of JG 5s greatest aces, such as Weissenberger, Franz Dorr and Heinrich Bartels.

Schuck is the second highest-scoring ace alive, second only to Erich Rudorffer and his book is a welcome addition to the growing list of Luftwaffe biographies. Horst Kube and his publishing company have done a very good job and should be congratulated.

I can think of several high profile biographies that have failed miserably to come up to public expectation over the last 6 or 7 years.

All in all a nice book and worth the expense.

Cheers,

David.
