Rudel`s Fire Brigade
Hans Ulrich Rudel began his amazing career as a Stuka pilot in Poland in 1939, and was one of the few pilots to survive six years of combat flying. Shot down more than a dozen times, he finished the war flying an FW190 - with one leg amputated and the other in a cast! Rudel's fame as the "indestructible" pilot - and his record of 2530 operational flights, 519 Russian tanks, and the Soviet battleship Murat destroyed brought his to the attention of the Fuehrer. Rudel won eleven decorations - the last a new medal specifically designed for him by Hitler. Rudel's Fire Brigade shows him in one of his low level support roles using his 37mm anti-tank weapons mounted under the wings of his Stuka.
