A typically good work from Forsyth, who is one of our current best historians of German military aviation, in which a scratch force of ad hoc elements gets built into an elite unit on the bleeding edge of combat over Germany itself. If you've been reading this series before you know what you're going to be getting. ( ) Osprey are starting to repeat themselves in an effort to drag their money-spinning series out with another Luftwaffe subject - JG 1 aces includes all those aces already covered in ' Fw 190 aces ', ' Fw 190 aces in the defense of the Reich', 'Viermot aces' etc etc . However they have ditched writer Weal and his dated artwork so this volume is absolutely worth getting for Jim Laurier's superb profile views geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Aircraft of the Aces (134)
Formed shortly after the outbreak of World War 2, and equipped with Messerschmitt Bf 109Es,Jagdgeschwader1 was initially tasked to defend the regional North Sea and Baltic coastal areas and the Germany's main port cities and naval bases. The greatest task for JG 1 though came after 1942 in its defense of the Reich against the US Eighth Air Force's B-17s and B-24s, bearing the brunt of defense against increasingly regular, larger and deep penetrating USAAF daylight bomber raids with fighter escort. Levels of attrition subsequently grew, but so did experience among the leading aces, who were often the subject of propaganda films and literature. Many of Germany's most famous World War 2 aces flew with JG 1 including Herbert Ihlefeld (132 victories), Heinz Bär (220), and Walter Oesau (127), piloting Bf 109Es, Fw 190s and the Heinkel 162 jet fighter. Packed with photographs and profile artwork and revealing first-hand accounts, this is the compelling story of the Luftwaffe fighter pilots who battled to defend the skies of Germany.
