Description

Erich Sommer's memoir offers a unique perspective on life in pre-war Germany and his experiences flying for the Luftwaffe during World War II. Born into an uncertain atmosphere following the First World War, Erich recounts how the rise of the Nazis impacted everyday lives. As he navigated his way through the war, Erich served as a navigator, pilot, and reconnaissance expert, flying various aircraft including the Junkers Ju 86 and Arado Ar 234 jet. His stories provide insight into the high-stakes world of Luftwaffe operations, from monitoring disarmament efforts in Morocco to conducting missions over Britain and the Russian Front. With a detailed introduction by acclaimed historian J. Richard Smith and accompanied by photographs from private family albums, this memoir offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of an exceptional Luftwaffe pilot and navigator.
