Greece April 1941

[Martin Gleeson]

Brian,

Is your forthcoming book about the Balkans Campaign of April & May 1941 ? An update/revision of your earlier co-authored work on the same subject ? It would be most welcome. Can you please enlighten (tease ?) us ?

Yours in great anticipation !

Martin.

Hi Martin

Thanks for the interest.

Actually, my new book is a biography of Bill Vale DFC, who flew with 80 Squadron during the Greece campaign, and was second only to Pat Pattle
regarding number of claims. You probably know this, anyway.

Owing to the lack of 'a personal account' (Bill was killed in a car crash in 1981) I have relied on placing Bill in an account of 80 Squadron's activities, using original and 'new' information.

Bill was quite a character and deserves a biography. Perhaps you'll acquire a copy in due course! Due out circa October.

Cheers
Brian

I pm a raw draft to you

Quote : "the new book of a pilots son (Hans Peter Eisenbach) about his fathers servicetime in Greece (FF. Fritz Eisenbach)"

Hi guys ,
look into the book: "Fronteinsätze eines Stuka Fliegers" !
The Stuka pilot (FF:Fritz Eisenbach) crashed deadly on 30.03.1944 in Russia when he was 23 years old and unmarried.
The author of the book (Hans Peter Eisenbach) is born in 1952 ! So he can definitely not be the son of Fritz !
