                                          THE EARLY YEARS 1939 - 12 JULY 1941 PART 1

The Nachtjagd Combat Archive is a comprehensive record of over 6000 Luftwaffe Night Fighter Claims and 2100 Flak claims which have been painstakingly matched to RAF Bomber Command losses resulting in over 95% of them now being identified. This means that for the first time ever, the fate of the vast majority of RAF Bomber Command losses can be clearly understood with exact locations, times and identities of the pilots or Flak units responsible for bringing them down. This brand new volume is packed with photos of Luftwaffe night fighters, personalities and downed RAF bombers, together with a colour map depicting losses on the 10/11 May 1941, Hamburg, Emden and Berlin raids.
