Hardcover. Condition: VG. No Jacket. 1st Thus. This early book containing the reminiscences of a German fighter pilot in the last year of WWII was initially printed in German, with this first English edition of 1955 translated by Mervyn Savill. At the time of the D-Day landings Heilman had been flying with the Luftfwaffw for three years --- a real survivor. Here he tells of the last year of the Luftwaffe --- defensive battles over France and into Germany, the desperate and unsuccessful all-out attack on Allied airfields on New Year's Day 1945. From there on it was all downhill for Heilmann's unit, the famed "Greenhearts." Flying in FW !90s to the end, the author paints a graphic picture of the demise of a once much-feared air force. First edition of 1955, 202 pages followed by six pages promos for publisher's other war titles, 10 b/w photos plus frontis author portrait. Red hard covers VG with few tiny spots to front, spine with gilt titles lightly sunned, internally VG+, no inscriptions. A scarce book. Photos (illustrator).…

Hardcover with dust jacket. Along with Adolf Galland's account of German fighter operations in WWII, Willi Heilmann's own record, originally publishcd in 1955, has become a classic. ALERT IN THE WEST covers the author's personal involvement and action as a pilot with JG54 'Grunherz' from early 1944 until the end of the war. He joined III Gruppe, which was based in France while the Geschwader's other Gruppen were on the Eastern Front, and experienced the increased air activity from the Allies in their build-up to the Invasion. Heilmann's Gruppe, in common with other Luftwaffe units were gradually pushed back by the Allied forces and regrouped to form the backbone of the hastily assembled Defence of the Reich. Heilmann's account of those hard fought days flying his Fw 190 on innumerable daily missions ranks with the other 'classic' aviation histories of thc Second World War. 159 p. very good condition, with remains of a small sticker on the dust jacket.…
