The Birth of the Luftwaffe by Hanfried Schliephake
It was Hitler’s Luftwaffe that made possible the lightning victories of the German Army during the first three years of World War II. As a result, the Luftwaffe has been touted as a modern-day military wonder. It supposedly rose from nothing, virtually overnight, when the Nazis seized power; its meteoric career made it the terror of the European skies; and it quickly faded from the headlines to become the stuff of legend. No one body of men has ever before been the subject of such a barrage of propaganda, much of it coming from the Germans themselves.
The result is an important reference source of enormous importance to every student of military history. The Birth of the Luftwaffe explains every phase of the creation of one of history’s most powerful military forces, putting an end to many of the myths and legends that have sprung up around the Luftwaffe.
