Red Star Against The Swastika...

[Trooper117]

If you haven't already got this, I'd urge anyone who is interested in the IL2 Sturmovik to read this book by Vasily B. Emelianenko.

I purchased this a few years ago, a very good read, sad in places as he recounts how many of his friends were lost, but he continues with stoic resolution to defeat the enemy.

It can be purchased quite cheaply in hardback on Amazon UK for under £9 Brand new.
