Stukas Over the Mediterranean 1940-45

Luftwaffe at War #11

by Peter C. Smith

This exciting on-going series covers every aspect of the Luftwaffe in World War II and charts the rise and fall of this mighty force. Each volume makes use of over a hundred rare and valuable photographs, many of them taken by Luftwaffe personnel, to bring history to life and record both the men and the aircraft they flew. Stukas Over the Mediterranean examines the role of German and Italian Ju 87s in diverse campaigns such as the attack on Yugoslavia, the battle for Crete and operations by the night flying squadrons.

It is interesting to note that the Stukas were never retired during the war.
