Description:Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 30. Chapters: Helmut Lent, Duncan Edwards, Heinrich Bar, Frank Swift, Otto Lilienthal, Adrian Warburton, Friedrich-Karl "Tutti" Muller, Lothar von Richthofen, Melitta Schenk Grafin von Stauffenberg, Werner Haas, Roger Byrne, Donny Davies, Lothar Sieber, Hans Schemm, Winfried Freudenberg, Tommy Taylor, Mark Jones, Billy Whelan, Paul-Heinrich Dahne, Werner Quast, Reinhard Furrer, David Pegg, Tom Curry, Rudolf Rademacher, Stasys Gir nas, Eddie Colman, Geoff Bent, Hermann Schridde, Reinhold Poss.

Lent claimed his first aerial victories at the outset of World War II in the invasion of Poland and over the North Sea. During the invasion of Norway he flew ground support missions before he was transferred to the newly established Nachtjagdgeschwader 1 (NJG 1), a night-fighter wing. Lent claimed his first nocturnal victory on 12 May 1941 and on 30 August 1941 was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes) for 22 victories. His steady accumulation of aerial victories resulted in regular promotions and awards. On the night of 15 June 1944, Major Lent was the first night fighter pilot to claim 100 nocturnal aerial victories, a feat which earned him the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds (Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kr...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
