This is a biographical account of five German day fighter pilots. The author details the lives and careers of these men in an objective and unbiased manner without prejudice or political judgment. Each biography has been supplemented by a large number of photographs taken mostly from the pilots own private collections. The text and photographs take you chronologically through each of their pre-war lives and then concentrates, in particular, on their careers as fighter pilots, detailing the training, the bitter and sometimes desperate fighting, followed by the emptiness of defeat. And then finally, how each of these men made their way in the post-war world after the defeat of Germany.
