Last Flight of the Luftwaffe – Courland Evacuation VE-Day 1945

Courland Evacuation

On VE-Day 1945 and beyond, the German Air Force launched a desperate rescue mission to evacuate German wounded and troops from the Courland Pocket in Latvia, where German forces had been cut off by the Soviet advance. Using whatever aircraft were still available, the mission ended in tragedy and destruction.
