And here's a tribute to my two favorite fighter pilots, hanging on my living room wall (much to the chagrin of my wife). Brillanten am Himmel (Diamonds in the Sky) by Heinz Krebs with the original sigs of Hartmann and Galland.

Not a specific mission, but a great representation of two of only 27 men (ten pilots) to be awarded the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds (Oberst Hans-Ulrich Rudel was the only recipient of the Golden Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds).

Best part is having Hartmann's and Galland's original signitures.
