During World War II, the aviation industry stood among the largest
industrial branches of the Third Reich. The manufacture of aircraft
and air force equipment represented approximately 40% of total
German war production and involved the employment of two million
people. Thus, aviation factories became the place where scores of
people experienced the war. Based on German records, Allied
intelligence reports, and eyewitness reports, this study explores
the military, political, scientific, and social aspects of
Germany's World War II aviation industry, such as production,
research and development, Allied attacks, the use of foreign
workers and slave labor, and daily life and working conditions in
the factories. Testimony from Holocaust survivors who worked in the
factories adds a strong human component to the technological facade
of the German aviation industry, providing a compelling new
perspective on the history of the Third Reich.
