it's been quite interesting for me with my leg injuries - propped up to stop, recollect and phone and email some of the US 8th AF flyers and get their perspectives of the Luftw. particpation over France the first week of June 44. they seemed non-existant the first day while the dive bombings and raod strafings took place and then all of sudden the Luftw. day fighter force woke up but could never be a contender in the air ever again..........
