up for sale is John Manrho and Ron Putz's excellent book BODENPLATTE The Luftwaffe's Last Hope about the Attack on Allied Airfields New Year's Day 1945.

Is a will documented of the Luftwaffe's last hope to and crush the Allied Air Power which failed.  It is 304 pages packed with hundreds of photos soon seen for the first time and excellent text.

I had it signed by one of the P-51 pilots who scrambled and took part in the conflict.  He was a Silver Star recipient and had his New Year's Day claims reviewed in 2000 and became an ACE 55 years later.

So it took him 55 years to have rightly be given the status of ACE.  He also signed the cover page and on pages 153 and 160.

A great book for any collection and how a pilot with the 487th FS 352nd FG became an ace.
