Within weeks of war being declared, Wolfgang Fischer had volunteered to join the Luftwaffe and spent nearly five of the succeeding six years of hostilities in uniform. During this time, he was given a succession of postings varying from a long-range recce unit; as a decoder in a met office in occupied France; to a bomber squadron; and as a flying instructor, before joining a squadron of the famous Richthofen Geschwader in Italy, from where he was shot down in his FW 190 by Mustangs en route to Normandy. By now a Leutnant, he survived to fly offensive rocket attacks over Gold Beach on D-Day, only to be shot down again on D + 1, and captured and sent first to a hospital in the UK, then into captivity in the USA. He was finally repatriated in April 1946. Expertly translated and edited by John Weal, this is a worthy accompaniment to Norbert Hannig's Luftwaffe Fighter Ace (9781911667223) also available in paperback.

It works perfectly for what I needed it for.
Color: Black, Size: Four Panel
Easy to assemble. Nice size in width and height. Perfect divider for our bedroom downstairs. Like the flexibility of having it straight or can use it in an accordion style.
Lightweight and sturdy.

Do NOY buy used.
4th time buying this, and thank god I did. Bought this last one as "used-like new"... instructions are missing, 4 screws are missing, the present ones were loose in the box, and the cloth panels are I-balled-them-up-and-used-them-to-play-basketball wrinkled. Do NOT buy this used. It's only because I had leftover parts and previous knowledge that I was able to assemble this.
On to product. Super lightweight, easy assembly, looks pretty clean up close and from a distance. Panels stay on bars via velcro. This is not a sturdy screen, so it's not for a kid's room. But if you want a room divider that has no other job than to divide with quiet dignity, it works.

Practice makes perfect
These are actually three separately assembled screens that link together once ready, so I could gauge the improvement in my capability as a screen-assembling artisan. I’m 71 so getting down on the floor wasn’t all that easy. The first screen took 90 minutes as I tried to decipher the typically less than ideal pictorial directions, and to figure out how to position everything (including myself) working in a fairly small space. But by the third assembly I was a skilled craftsman and assembled it in 15 minutes. They look nice and do what I had hoped. All the parts were there, well-labeled, and the threading on the screw mountings were adequate although one required a bit more cajoling than the rest and worried me a bit until I finally got it right.

Not good quality
Color: Black, Size: Four Panel
Not the easiest thing to assemble, the screwdriver provided doesn't work so I hope you have your own. The fabric panels were at least an inch too short and weren't long enough to stretch to top and bottom, strain on velcro made them pop off with the slightest movement. Once assembled the panels were assembled they weren't stable at all and would fall over easily. Not very safe

Better than expected!
I ordered this room divider for my small apartment and the quality is surprisingly pretty good for the price paid — sturdy metal poles, mid-weight fabric panels enough for privacy (i.e.: not so see-through), brand new screws, and thick plastic end connectors. Instructions are figures only — READ THE PICTURES CAREFULLY! Highly recommend having a second person to help with assembling the divider panels together. This took me and my friend over an hour to assemble partly because there’s only one hex key to tighten the screws (and I forgot to add the plastic end connectors to the #3-labeled poles, so I had to take it apart and then set it up again). Overall satisfied with this purchase.
