Courland pocket

[Andrew Arthy]

Hi Allan and Alain,

Yes, a book about the air war over Courland has been in the works for quite some time, but I'm determined to get it done this year. The evacuation will be covered in its own chapter.

In the interim, Axel Urbanke's Luftwaffe im Focus Spezial No. 2 (2006) has an excellent article on the evacuation by Georg Schlaug and Sven Carlsen, and would be a good place to seek the answer to Alain's question.

There were some excellent discussions on the old 12 O'Clock High forum as well. See, for example: http://www.lwag.org/forums/archive/i...hp/t-2372.html

Cheers,
Andrew A.
