  14. Great talking about #MelittaVonStauffenberg, aeronautical engineer behind much of the #Ju87 #Stuka #divebomber, & exceptional #nosedive #testpilot. Deeply conflicted, she was later at the heart of the 20 July 1944 attempt on Hitler’s life. See #TheWomenWhoFlewForHitler!

  16. CW: WW2 History

    One team we have helped quite a bit over the years (we're not just opinionated, we are opinionated and know our stuff) is #airwar publications, a multinational group of researchers who care about archives and accuracy. Highly recommended to anyone interested in #ww2 #ww2history and @militaryhistory #history @histodons In the interest of full disclosure, there is no commercial link of any kind between us. Simply researchers helping each other out. rommelsriposte.com/2022/10/21/
