From the Webmaster.  This sounds like a very interesting book.  All of a sudden, the Allies were fighting the Germans with the Bf 109 German Built Airplanes.  If anyone has read this book or any other book about this subject, please tell me more about this.  Check this Exhibit about the Israeli Air Force using the BF-109 in the Arab Israeli War
Thank you.  C. Jeff Dyrek, Webmaster
