Yep. Hans Von Luck talks about this idea in good detail in Panzer Commander.
Jonathon Dimbleby Battle of the Atlantic is a good start point! Lots of nice little things I didn't know about and talks about it from both a very high level strategic point of view and also a down to earth sailors view point. Very good!

I would check out the FPS Dominator. Its essentially a $40 scuf. Its an attachment that goes on to your current controller..I have one, and its completly worth it. It has 2 easy to map paddles...Ive paired my right paddle to dropshot and my left paddle to jump.
Try that before you think about investing in a scuf.

They also have it for xbox one
You're probably looking at the older listing. I believe everyone who has pre-ordered has been upgraded to this listing now:
Call of Duty®: WWII + Animated Zombies Weapon Camo + Zombies Prima Strategy Guide (Exclusive to Amazon.co.uk) (PS4) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0744MTW34/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_lrlKzbZJN2GZN
That is available to pre-order. Same price as before but has the exclusive strategy guide included now. Hope this helps mate!
I found this to be the single best strategic review of the Wehrmacht...

Read up on these in "Between Silk and Cyanide." Easy reading and fascinating. Silk was durable and quiet. No rustling in the dark.

Where did you get these?
I use this for the xbox works great. amazon.com/Collective-Minds-Xbox-One-Mod-Pack

I just change the A button the the RB button, then tape the buttons down. Let it go overnight while I sleep.
These assignments were usually made at the end of primary based on the cadet's personality. Aggressive, loner types normally got shunted to fighters. Cool, team players ended up in bombers. I've read both Robert Morgan (Pilot of the Memphis Belle) and Robin Olds (Air Force Ace in WWII, Korea, & Vietnam) autobiographies and they both echoed this. So far as specific airframes, who got a B-17 and who got a B-24 as best as I can tell it's just whatever they happened to need more of that particular day.
I'd recommend The Second World War and World War Two Day by Day.
My first WW2 book was Rise and Fall of the Third Reich but it just covers Germany. Good book though add it to your list.
Thumb stick extension for the right stick has been great, but personally the biggest change was adding this.

It's basically scuff back paddles but when your controller wears out, you dont have to drop another $150.
I have read accounts of German planes firing rockets into Allied bomber formations. There have also been cases of Allied bombers dropping bombs on top of each other as well. If you want a good book that discusses this and a lot of other incredible stuff that happened, I highly recommend Hell's Angels: The True Story of the 303rd Bomb Group in World War II by Jay A Stout.
It might be because they have there own amazon exclusive Standard Plus Edition which seems to have replaced the normal edition.
I'm loving the lists others have put up.
I have to add O'kanes Wahoo and Clear the Bridge
And a few of the europian air war: The Dam Busters and Reach for the Sky

For a well paced German perspective on the battle for Poland, France and Russia, check out Von Mamstein's memoirs. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0760320543?pc_redir=1404151296&robot_redir=1
Three of my favorite first person views of war in the ETO:
Roll Me Over by Raymond Gantter
Visions From a Foxhole by William Foley
Company Commander by Charles B Macdonald
The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany
http://www.amazon.com/The-Rise-Fall-Third-Reich/dp/1451651686
This book has it all: Hitler's youth, the roots of his hatred for jews, the brown shirts, how he was elected into office...on and on. 1500 pages or so.
