Product Highlights
Knoke. Joining the Luftwaffe on the eve of World War II, Heinz Knoke fought for Germany throughout the conflict, eventually commanding a fighter wing. In over 400 missions, he shot down 52 Allied aircraft, including 19 American four-engined heavy bombers. Towards the end of the war, he was shot down and badly injured, but ultimately earned Germany's highest award for gallantry, the Knight's Cross. A fascinating counterbalance to the numerous accounts written by Allied pilots. 208 pages, 32 B&W photos, 6"x 9¼", softcover.
