		FELDMARSCHALL Hugo Sperrle was not a handsome man. His hairline had receded to the top of his crown and what was left of his dark hair was slicked back with handfuls of oil.
		As Sperrle clothed his massive girth in his grey air force uniform, he glanced out of the window of his quarters in the Palais, built in the Florentine style for Marie de Medici in the early seventeenth century.
		Subsequently, Sperrle had risen through the ranks until he was given the command of the Condor Legion in the Spanish Civil War, contributing to the development of saturation bombing through the devastation of Guernica, Aragon and Ebro.

	The Battle of Britain - Home Page
		Commander of the smaller Luftflotte III, Hugo Sperrle's greatest claim to fame came before the Second World War when he was given command of the infamous Legion Condor during the Spanish Civil War.
		As usual, his counsel was ignored by his commander, but this underscores Sperrle's true capabilities as a commander, rather than the impression his survival instincts often paint of him.
		Having said this, Sperrle suffered from similar excesses as his commander, not only was he akin to Goering in build and appearance, he also had his tastes, taking the most luxurious headquarters and private residences, and enjoying the gambling and other facilities offered by the defeated territories to the full.

		Hitler gave permission and the initial force consisted a Bomber Group of three squadrons of Ju52 bombers; a Fighter Group with three squadrons of He51 fighters; a Reconnaissance Group with two squadrons of He99 and He70 reconnaissance bombers; and a Seaplane Squadron of He59 and He60 floatplanes.
		Under the command of General Hugo Sperrle, the legion was an autonomous unit responsible only to Franco.
		Sperrle demanded higher performance aircraft from Germany and he eventually received the Heinkel He111, Junkers Stuka and the Messerschmitt Bf109—Spain being the perfect testing ground for this new equipment.

		This renders their accounts suspect, and, in all fairness, they should be balanced against the admittedly self-interested German version of the events.
		The Sperrle Orders were issued by Luftwaffe Field Marshall Hugo Sperrle on February 3, 1944.
		These ordered harsh reprisals to terrorist attacks, and tasked officers with placing the welfare of their men ahead of that of the civilian population.

	Copy of the, 'Sperrle Orders' for the suppression of the resistance
		There were several sets of orders issued by the Commander-in-Chief West, Field Marshal of the Luftwaffe, Hugo Sperrle.
		It is worth noting that Sperrle stayed loyal to Hitler and played no part in the 20 July 1944 assassination attempt.
		He died in Munich of natural causes just before Easter 1953 and so lived to see the end of the trial in Bordeaux (which he did not attend).

	Battle of Britain - Charles' George Orwell Links
		The commander of Luftflotte 3, Hugo Sperrle, wanted to eradicate the air defence infrastructure by bombing.
		In the face of Sperrle's arguments that attacks on the airfields should continue, Kesselring persuaded the Reichsmarschall to attack London.
		The raids would either panic the British population into submission, or it would force the "last fifty Spitfires" into the sky where they could be annihilated.
