'Jochen (Hans-Joachim Marseille) was a practical joker; he was forever playing pranks. He came to see me and my squadron - No. 8 Staffel - one day in his colorful Volkswagen jeep. He called it Otto. After a talk, a cup of sweet coffee and a glass of Italian Doppio Kümmel, he got into his jeep and drove it straight at my tent flattening everything. Then he drove off with a grin stretching across his face.' - Werner Schrör, 8/JG 27, 61 Kills in North Africa

I met with Mr Rommel about 4 times, along with General Bayerlein's nephew on my visits to him in Stuttgart. Mr. Rommel was the kindest and yet greatest man I've ever met in my life. My time with him and the General's nephew have been the most memorial in my life.
