By his own, modest, admission Norbert Hannig was a Frontflieger, or operational pilot, who really did nothing special during World War Two. He was just, he says, one of the many rank and file pilots fighting for his country and not for the Fuhrer. But his wartime career makes for fascinating and highly informative reading on an aspect of the 1939-45 war not often covered in the English language; primarily that of the campaign against the Soviet Union. Norbert started flying during high school on gliders and joined the German air force as volunteer and officer cadet, one of the midwar-generation of Luftwaffe fighter pilots. He began operations with JG54 on the eastern (Leningrad) front in March 1943; initially he flew Messerschmitt Bf 109s before transitioning to the Focke-Wulf FW 190. After a year's fighting, he was ordered back to Germany as a flight instructor to oppose the bomber streams of the AAF and RAF. Returning to Russia at the end of 1944, he became a Staffel CO and claimed many aircraft shot down. In April 1945 he converted to the first jet fighter, the Me 262, in south Germany, and flew his last missions with this aircraft. Also serving with JV44 (whose CO was Adolf Galland), Norbert Hannig finished the war with 42 victories from more than 200 missions. Many and varied were his experiences in action against the rejuvenated Soviet air force in the east, and the powerful western Allies over the homeland during the final chaotic months of hostilities, which culminated in his captivity. John Weal's skilful translation ensures that the fluid descriptive style of the author is preserved. Thankfully, also, Norbert was a keen photographer who shot a profusion of images, many of which appear in this important book.

Great item, poor packaging.
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush, Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
I love this product, but the last bottle I received had a crack in the bottle and made a total mess of everything. To return it, I had to send back the leaking bottle that had already made a terrible mess on my counter and table and I threw it away.

This stuff WORKS!
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush, Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
My legs hardly ever tan— I get a nice even tan on my arms and chest but can never get a nice tan on my legs— this stuff is magic. I used the brush to evenly coat my legs, sat out for about 20-30 minutes and by the next day my legs were darrrrkkk! The texture is smooth- goes on and is kinda oily but it does a great job at moisturizing too. The smell is pretty mild compared to other tanning solutions. I love this product and have recommended to all my friends whose legs don’t tan well. 😊 ♥️ ♥️

Great for Sun Allergy Rashes!
Scent: Unscented, Scent: Unscented
I have an autoimmune disease called Sjogren’s Disease. With that, for me, comes a sensitivity to the sun in the form of sun allergy rashes. Also with that, I did a deep dive on the best sunscreens and read a lot of reviews on here. I put some of the outer sides of elbows where my sun allergy rashes were when I received it. There was slight sting, but the skin there was already slightly broken. I really love the texture of it, how it feels on my skin and that there's no white cast. It’s moisturizing, too, with no greasiness. Absorbed really well.
