EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment during the filming of the epic war movie "The Battle-Of-Britain," produced in Germany in 1968. In the image, Movie Chief Technical Advisor General Adolf Galland (left) is seen shaking hands with actor Hein Riess, who portrayed Reichmarschall Hermann Goering (right) in the production. Galland, a former Head of the Real Luftwaffe, shares an intimate conversation with Riess while both men are dressed in their respective uniforms. The year was 1968, and this photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the intersection of history and art. Galland, a decorated military pilot and a key figure in the development of the Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter during World War II, lent his expertise to ensure the film's authenticity. Riess, an accomplished German actor, masterfully portrayed the enigmatic and controversial Reichmarschall Goering, who was the Commander-in-Chief of the Luftwaffe during the war. This image, with its vintage aesthetic and historical significance, serves as a testament to the rich history of the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) and the enduring impact of World War II on popular culture. The aged and elderly figures in this photograph, with their wrinkled faces and weathered uniforms, remind us of the passing of time and the importance of preserving history for future generations.
