Another by the pilot of He 162 "Nervenklau" and one (which I haven't yet read) on the Ju 88 G that defected to Swizerland.

Dear Nick,

I've read this issue and also very interesting is the article about the last
operations of "Luftwaffen Kommando West" in South Germany. The story
of Hans-Ekkehard Bob is a part of his biography. I don't know the original
book but it may be interesting.
The photos of Me 262 and He 162 in this issue are the well known planes
of JG 1 in Leck, Northern Germany (He 162) and some 262 which were
found at the motorway from München to Salzburg, Austria.
Maybe in the next "Luftwaffe im Focus" issue we found some new photos
of German jets or maybe some of other units?
Before I forget, in Edition 3 was a great story about the Me 262 V555
and the last flight (8 May 1945).
