Jagdgeschwader JG 53 pilots in the Mediterranean

In this very interesting footage you could see many features of the air war over Malta. You will see JG 53pilots relaxing and having fun before their mission. Then a search and rescue mission is launched, with a Dornier Do-24 looking  for a pilot who was forced to ditch in the sea off Sicily. In the final part you will see a mission over Malta, with gun camera footages and low passes over the airbase. Major Gunther von Maltzahn and Generalfeldlmarschal Albert Kesserling are clearly recognizable in the film.
