Alarmstart : the German fighter pilot's experience in the Second World War : North-Western Europe 1939-1944

Eriksson, Patrick2017
Books
For anyone interested in the air war 1939-45, the information provided here is of inestimable value. There are no more than a handful of WW2 Luftwaffe members alive today. Patrick Eriksson had the foresight to record these experiences first-hand before it was too late. Some witnesses ended up as senior fighter controllers, and one was even a Luftwaffe psychologist. The recollections and views of the veterans are put within the context of the German aerial war history. By no means all the witnesses were from the ranks of the so-called 'aces', and the awful strain of the conflict is manifest.
