Their mission was to intercept enemy bombers at night flying fast single-engined fighters. But they also had to engage Allied bombers by day. The pilots of these new fighter wings were a mix of former bomber pilots and trained fighter pilots - a unique composition for the Luftwaffe. Night missions required good instrument training, like that given to bomber pilots. The fighter pilots were more familiar with the available aircraft and combat tactics. A former fighter pilot himself, Willi Reschke describes the difficulties of crossing over from day to night fighting and vice-versa. He describes the difficult missions flown by JG 301\/JG 302 and the fates of their pilots, providing the first chronicle of the \"Wilde Sau\" Geschwader.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Willi Reschke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0764321307\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780764321306\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schiffer Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 5.90w x 1.40d","brand":"Willi Reschke","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153110839551,"sku":"9780764321306","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_baca5908-ae00-4e73-9d23-48cba8a92df5.jpg?v=1770781360","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jagdgeschwader-301302-wilde-sau-willi-reschke-9780764321306","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
