I don't think anyone mentioned this book yet, if you haven't read it yet you should definitely look for it. It's an exciting read, I think I finished this book in 3-4 days!

 

Erich's strategy was to spot the enemy first and surprise them, waiting to fire until very close, which typically resulted in catastrophic damage to the enemy plane. He scored 352 kills, of which 345 were Soviet aircraft. 

 

Enough said!

I love the part where he's running through the field of sunflowers and the bullets are wizzing by him.

You could make a great movie from that book.
