I am very pleased to learned the book has finally been published.

I helped out Sinisa with quite a few photos, so I am obviously looking forward to seeing them printed...

Before we had Ketley and Rolfe's excellent Luftwaffe Emblems by Hikoki Publishing which in it's time helped to define the emblemology of the Luftwaffe.

But now we have definitive book on the subject, albeit specialising on one particular area: the Jagdwaffe.

Sinisa Sestanovics meticulous and careful approach to the subject has given us both beautifully reproduced and accurate renditions of each units insignia. Further the accompanying text is filled with useful information about the adoption and formation of each emblem which indicates Sinisa's great depth of knowledge and understanding of the Jagdwaffe. Not many great suprises in the content but a lot of corrections both major and minor to the emblems since the early days of Karl Ries and laterly Ketley & Rolfe. A number of misinterpretations are corrected and re-attribiuted and plainly incorrect emblems have been excluded. Early Jagdwaffe emblems have also been included and their morphology into the well known WW2 Jagdwaffe insignia are recorded

I unreservedly recommend this book to all TOCH members, weel worth the modest cost!
