The Africa Ship - Dominic Etzold - książka
Producent: Schiffer
Imperial Germany embarked on a daring mission to deliver essential supplies to Paul Emil von Lettow-Vorbeck's beleaguered troops in East Africa using an airship. Von Lettow-Vorbeck, the commander of German forces in the region during World War I, was renowned for his exceptional military prowess. Despite facing overwhelming odds, he and his army managed to avoid defeat and successfully intimidate their predominantly British adversaries. This success was achieved even though resupplying the troops from Europe was a monumental challenge. The Royal Navy's formidable blockade of East Africa, coupled with Allied control of key railway networks, exacerbated the supply dilemma. In a bold response, the German navy, in late 1917, conceived a plan to use an airship to dispatch supplies to von Lettow-Vorbeck's forces. This audacious endeavor involved the deployment of airship L 59, under the command of Captain Ludwig Bockholt, with a voluntary crew setting out from Bulgaria on a direct route to the East African colony.
