An autobiography by Wolfgang Falck, Father of the Luftwaffe

Night Fighters, who found himself in the most unique position

when German Luftwaffe high command decided to form a night

fighter force. 

Because of his leadership capabilities and knowledge of military

tactics plus the fact that he was a very capable fighter pilot, Falck

was selected to create the Nachtjagd.

Known affectionately by his men as the Father of the Night Fighters,

he continues to wear this mantle, to this day. Falck provides the

reader with a fascinating behind the scenes personal view of the life

in the leadership of the German Luftwaffe; its successes, its operations

and failures, the interrelationship of personalities involved and

ultimately the end of WWII. 

Wolf brings the reader upfront and personal view of his experiences

in the last desperate days, through his post war survival and happy

retirement after working in the aerospace industry.
