Description

Cover: Lost in the Desert ……. A plane appears on the horizon on the second morning of an arduous march through the dreary waste of sand. The crew of a Junkers 88 bomber that had been forced down, immediately try to attract attention by smoke signals. The first attempt fails, but they have more success with a second plane which is also in search of them and are rescued. Our article in this issue describes their experiences during the anxious hours preceding that moment. PK – photograph by Ziock (PBZ), war correspondent …….
