Description
verso labeled in typeset: 300799 Reichsfuehrer Hitler and General Hermann Goering watching planes of the Richthofen Squadron go thru air maneuvers during a display at Doberitz, Germany, staged especially for Hitler. The squadron, named after the famous German war ace, is commanded by General Goering. It is composed of flyers, who have heretofore been known as sportsmen aviators, and may be viewed as definite proof of Hitler's boast that his air force equalled that of Great Britain.
