Goering was always looking for excuses to explain away his own
incompetence. Probably the best way for him to help the Luftwaffe put
up a far better show in 1940 would have been to fly off in one of his
own planes and get shot down by the RAF. Goering and Hitler were well
matched as military strategists. We can be glad that they were in
charge, rather than some of the more competent German generals.
