Eagle's Rest by Ivan Berryman. Messerschmitt Bf.109G-2s of 6./JG 5 sit quietly following a fresh snowfall in March 1943, the aircraft swept down and ready for action, should the call come. Nearest aircraft is that of August Mors, 'Yellow 7', whilst the mount of Heinrich Ehrler, 'Yellow 12' sits nearby. Just three months later, on 12th June, Mors was forced to abandon his stricken machine, baling out over enemy territory. Despite this, he managed to evade capture and was back with his unit only six days later. |
