Above photo: The first operational unit to receive the Ju 188 was I/KG 6 and it used its aircraft for pathfinder duties. The wing was involved in the spring 1944 "Little Blitz" over England, during which time this Ju 188A-2 is seen being loaded for a mission.

"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill
