Talking Re: New luftwaffe book
If the German losses of Bodenplatte are still contributed mainly or to a large portion to German Flak than the author did not learn much from previous publications....

John

I had my doubts from the sample I read about D-Day: he appears to repeat the Priller/Cornelius Ryan line about JG 26's bases at the time, for example.

Re: New luftwaffe book

Re: New luftwaffe book
Can't say about the narrative content as I have only just received my copy but I have to say that the imaging is average with a lot of the photos, colour profiles & maps being quite dark.
