@RWE-Neat yarn!
I spoke to some old Luftwaffe fighter aces who were all full Colonels in the new Luftwaffe in the mid 1960s. They all spoke good English because they had been trained to fly their new jets in the US.
One told me he was sure they were doomed when the Yanks dropped their camouflage paint jobs and started to polish up their planes to a nice silver.
The USAAF pilots wanted old Kamerade to see them so they would come up to fight.
Heheheheheh. I loves that old American attitude. And the 1,000 bomber raids. No other country could do it. Rich, strong, young, confident and the product of the best system in the world (if not the neatest).
All maybe helped by the fact that the leftist chattering classes were on Sam’s side for once, after the Germans invaded their spiritual homeland.
