What is Legion Condor : the Luftwaffe in Spain, 1936-1939 about?
Condor: The Luftwaffe in Spain 1936-1939 КНИГИ ;ВОЕННАЯ ИСТОРИЯ Condor: The Luftwaffe in Spain 1936-1939 ByPatrick LaureauPublisher: Hikoki Publications2000192 PagesISBN: 1902109104 PDF40 MBThe Spanish Civil War was not just a tragedy for Spain; acting as a focus for all the different political philosophies which had simmered throughout the Thirties, it served as the proving ground for Italian, Soviet and German military theorists. It was here that the first clash between the dictators, Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, took place, albeit by proxy. It was here that the concept of Blitzkrieg was first tried out by the German volunteers of the Legion Condor, which formed a major air component of the Spanish rebel forces. This was a revolutionary all-arms formation, self-contained and always controlled by airmen. Here the likes of Galland, Molders and Trautloft earned their spurs. Here, too, the Bf 109, He 111, Do 17 and the infamous Ju 87 had their baptism of fire. It was, in effect, the opening rounds of World War II. Using much new previously undiscovered source material, this study looks in detail at the men, machines and units which formed the Legion Condor.UploadingDepositfiles 8
