Re: Spanish Aces on Eastern Front
Some books in my collection, on the Blue Squadron:
Alas españolas en Rusia 1941/44, by Francisco Martínez Canales, 2011, Madrid: Alamena, 96 pages, soft cover. This is an Osprey style book, from a series of Spanish history oriented books. Spanish.
La Escuadrilla Azul, by Jorge Fernández-Coppel, 2008, ?Madrid?: Altaya, 331 pages, hardcover. Spanish.
Les Espagnols de la Luftwaffe, José Fernandez & Juan Arraez Cerda, Ciel de Guerre #18 (2010) & #19 (2011), 82 pages + 41 pages (the rest of the issue is devoted to the Blue Division). French.
Victory lists for the 4 combat tours (the 5th did not have any victories) can be found in the relevant volumes of Prien's Jagdfliegerverbande covering the Eastern Front.
Jorge Fernández-Coppel has also written a biography of José Ramón Gavilán: General Gavilán. Memorias: de enlace del General Mola a jefe de la casa militar de Franco, 2005, Madrid: La Esfera de los Libros, 270 pages, hardcover. Spanish.
Enjoy!
Frank.
