Good post by Chock. I am getting tired myself of the Maximilian Schell type stereotype of the german officer, as well as the other, Herrmann Goering fat schemer type. Real people tend to fall in between those two extremes, and neither was Goering the fool that everyone believes him to be today, nor was Galland the chivalrous hero that just happened to be on the wrong side.
Lets not forget Galland was a member of the Condor clique, known for their arrogant, inappropriate, and generally unmilitaric behaviour.
