RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 20, 2012 . There is currently a listing for a book on eBay that may be of interest to one of our German-speaking OFF flyers. Olham, perhaps? An original 1936 German printing of "Under Steel Helmet and Pilot Cap", by Gustav Praclik. Here's the link: WWI pilot Gustav Praclik's memoirs Can't argue with the starting price. I'd scoop it myself if I could read German at anything above a drunk, dyslexic snail's pace. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the tip and link, Lou. Next book I have here is Kilduff's book about Carl Degelow: "Black Fokker Leader". And then I have other books on my list to get first - like McCudden's "Flying Fury", or Kilduff's book about Berthold. Then there must be something by (or about) Arthur Rhys-Davids? Is there a good read about Albert Ball? According to "The Jasta Pilots" Uffz. Gustav Praclik was only in Jasta 5 from October to November 1918.
