Description:
(Subject: Osprey Aviation) Formed shortly after the outbreak of World War II, and equipped with Messerschmitt Bf 109Es, JG 1 defended Germany's North Sea and Baltic coastal areas and its main port cities and naval bases. After 1942 it fought against the US Eighth Air Force's B-17s and B-24s, and bore the brunt of action against increasingly regular, fighter escorted deep penetration USAAF day bomber raids. Levels of attrition grew, but so did experience of the unit's leading aces, including Herbert Ihlefeld, Heinz Bar and Walter Oesau, piloting Bf 109Es, Fw 190s and Heinkel 162 jet fighters. Packed with photographs and profile artwork, this is the compelling story of the pilots who defended Germany. (Published: 2017) (Publisher: Osprey Publishing) (ISBN: 9781472822918) (Pagination: A4 format, 96pp, numerous b/w illustrations, 11colour plates) (Condition: new in card cover) UL-XXXXXX

Description:
Paperback / softback. New. Formed shortly after the outbreak of World War 2, and equipped with Messerschmitt Bf 109Es, Jagdgeschwader 1 was initially tasked to defend the regional North Sea and Baltic coastal areas and Germany's main port cities and naval bases. The greatest task for JG 1 though came after 1942 in its defence of the Reich against the US Eighth Air Force's B-17s and B-24s, bearing the brunt of defence 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 Bar (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… Read More
