Wow the part about crash landing on the Autobahn was my favorite. Ok, the part about trying to jump from his plane while he was burning up in his plane was pretty cool too.

Can you imagine flying over the East German countryside in winter, 100ft off the ground in a stuka with the cannons blazing at a t-34 with a towed AA on the back of it shooting back at you. That takes alot of courage to do.


You'd have to have nerves of steel, and a set of cast iron balls to try something like that. If you even blinked, you'd die.
