In order to defeat Germany in World War II, the Allies needed to
destroy the Third Reich's industry and invade its territory, but
before they could effectively do either, they had to defeat the
Luftwaffe, whose state-of-the-art aircraft and experienced pilots
protected German industry and would batter any attempted invasion.
The difficult task of defeating the Nazis'air force fell largely to
the U.S., which, at the outset, lacked the necessary men, materiel,
and training. Over the ensuing years, thanks to visionary
leadership and diligent effort, the U.S. Army Air Force developed
strategies and tactics and assembled a well-trained force that
convincingly defeated the Luftwaffe. About the Author Jay A. Stout,
a retired U.S. Marine Corps fighter pilot with twenty years of
service, flew thirty-seven combat missions during Operation Desert
Storm, is now a senior aviation analyst for a defense corporation,
and has appeared on Fox News as a combat aviation expert. His
previous books include Hornets over Kuwait, Fortress Ploesti, and
Hammer from Above.
