The Battle Is Tough But If You

The German Luftwaffe Always Fought Without Any Reserves. This Is Also The Reason Why We Have Pilots With Extremely High Numbers Of Victories.

Their Element Is To Attack, To Track, To Hunt, And To Destroy The Enemy. Only In This Way Can The Eager And Skillful Fighter Pilot Display His Ability. Tie Him To A Narrow And Confined Task, Rob Him Of His Initiative, And You Take Away From Him The Best And Most Valuable Qualities He Posses: Aggressive Spirit, Joy Of Action, And The Passion Of The Hunter.

The First Rule Of All Air Combat Is To See The Opponent First. Like The Hunter Who Stalks His Prey And Maneuvers Himself Unnoticed Into The Most Favourable Position For The Kill, The Fighter In The Opening Of A Dogfight Must Detect The Opponent As Early As Possible In Order To Attain A Superior Position For The Attack.

The Battle Is Tough But If You Reach Where You Want To Go, Then At Least In Some Sense It Is Worth It.

And Most Of These Pilots Were Lost During The First Five Flights.
