Help, please.

Dear Jochen,
I received all the books mentioned above; they are very good but I still need more datails on single day operations in Africa related to JG 27. Is there any other way to find them?
Thanks.
Michele

One way is to spend several weeks in the UK National Archives and the Imperial War Museum reading through deciphered German signals; intercepted radio traffic; prisoner of war interrogations; reports on wrecked aircraft; RAF Operations Record Books; German loss reports; intelligence files on captured documents and so on. You may also find material at the Australian War Memorial and in South Africa.

Also I would add the books by Chris Shores titled 'Fighters Over the Desert' and 'Fighters Over Tunisia' - however some patience may be in order here as rumor has it that Mr. Shores is planning to re-visit these titles sometime in the future. While the current versions of these books will likely provide more details as to JG 27's opponents on any given day, they are unlikely to give you any more detail than available from the Prien books.
