His story covers events not only in the air in the night battles over Germany but also of the technological war waged throughout, the decline of the Luftwaffe and the dreadful effect of Allied raids over the Reich.

Wilhelm Johnen KC (1944), NJG1, NJG5, 34 victories, died in 2002

A fascinating and dramatic account of the night air war over Germany ‘from the other side’ with a beautifully presented collection of scarce signatures.
