SONDERKOMMANDO ELBE: The Luftwaffe's Kamikaze Force

By September 1944, the Third Reich was under constant attack by Allied bombers and suffering an onslaught by the Red Army to the east. The Nazi high command called for 1,500 fighter aircraft to fly their planes directly into the Allied bombers, and bring down the aircraft, while German pilots bailed out and parachuted to safety. 16 pages of photos.
