Event Narrative

‘Manfred wrote from the field. He has made two enemy flights, both successful. The effects of his wound are still very noticeable; when he took off again for the first time, he almost felt sick in the air. He asked us to look after Lothar so that he doesn't go back into the field prematurely.’
