How germany Lost WW25
Fighting the enemy was easy for this gifted fighter pilot, compared to the battles he fought against an insane hierachy and dictatorship. How lucky we were (the allies)that his fanatical masters knew best and didn't listen to him. Facts and figures fly from his pen fast and furious, but also make for disbelief in the lack of effect of allied bombing on aircraft production, and questions the scores of aircraft downed on both sides. He gives a clear insight from someone who really was part of history, into Hitlers mismanagement of the war, "At this period of the war (1944) the supreme commander of all forces, disposed not only of Infantry battalions and Flak batteries, but also of individual aircraft!".
