Название: Who Killed the Red Baron: The Final Answer Автор: P. J. Carisella, James W. Ryan Издательство: Fawcett Publications Год: 1969 Формат: PDF Страниц: 292 Размер: 23,6 Mb Язык: English
THREE planes roared away from a dogfight, headed west along the Somme River. In the lead was a Sopwith Camel flown by a green pilot named Wilfred May. He was maneuvering wildly to evade the twin streams of death from the Spandau machine guns of the red triplane on his tail. The German so intent on destroying the young Canadian was the apparently invincible Richthofen, the Red Baron. Pursuing Richthofen was Captain Roy Brown, May's superior, desperately trying to save his fledgling. Brown got the triplane in his sights, got in a sustained burst of fire before overtaking his target and losing sight of it behind some trees. He was sure he had scored. But Richthofen continued his chase through a hail of ground fire after Brown was gone. Then suddenly his guns were silenced and he banked hard to the east, banked sharply again, sideslipped, then glided to earth. He had been killed by a single bullet through heart and lungs. |

Название: Those Wonderful Women in Their Flying Machines: The Unknown Heroines of World War II Автор: Sally Van Wagenen Keil Издательство: Rawson, Wade Publisher Год: 1979 Формат: PDF Страниц: 376 Размер: 58,3 МБ Язык: Английский
From 1942 to 1944, almost two thousand women pilots left their civilian lives as students, movie stuntwomen, secretaries, blackjack dealers, and wives with husbands overseas to converge on Avenger Field, Sweetwater, Texas. There, the only all-female cadet air base in history, they slipped into ill-fitting men's GI flying suits and marched into the "Army Way" of life. Six months later, the Women's Airforce Service Pilots (WASPS) were ready to fly every airplane in America's air arsenal, from the colossal B-29 Superfortress to the lightning-fast P-51 Mustang fighter.

Название: Heroes or Traitors - The German Replacement Army, the July Plot, and Adolf Hitler Автор: Walter S. Dunn Издательство: Praeger Год: 2003 Формат: PDF Страниц: 208 Размер: 27,1 МБ Язык: Английский
A riveting account of the conspirators who plotted to kill Hitler in July 1944, and the methods they used to keep a half million men from the battlefields of France and Russia. Without the efforts of these high-ranking German officers, the war against Hitler might have had a completely different outcome. It is a highly detailed account, but also a very readable book.

Sir Thomas Sopwith's 101-year life spanned aviation history.

His Hurricane and Lancaster were amongst the most successful designs of the Second and the remarkable Harrier `jump jet' emerged from an industrial empire that employed up to 127,000 people.

Название: The War Against Russia, 1854-1856 Автор: A. J. Barker Издательство: Holt, Rinehart and Winston Год: 1971 Формат: PDF Страниц: 392 Размер: 69,2 МБ Язык: Английский
The Crimean War is remembered principally because of a cavalry charge, the heroism of one woman, and the fact that the British generals' names—Raglan and Cardigan—passed into the language as articles of clothing. A whimsical reflection, perhaps, on where their real talents lay. A. J. Barker has written a witty and wise account of that vexing and perplexing war.
