Hans-Joachim Marseilles - A3 Fine Art Print

Hans-Joachim Marseilles - Fine Art Print A3 (297 x 420)

Hans-Joachim Marseille (13 December 1919 30 September 1942) was a German Luftwaffe fighter pilot and flying ace during World War II. He is noted for his aerial battles during the North African Campaign and his Bohemian lifestyle. One of the most successful fighter pilots, he was nicknamed the "Star of Africa". Marseille claimed all but seven of his 158 victories against the British Commonwealth's Desert Air Force over North Africa, flying the Messerschmitt Bf 109 fighter for his entire combat career. No other pilot claimed as many Western Allied aircraft as Marseille. Marseille was awarded a Knights Cross with Diamonds, and he was rated by fellow ace Adolf Galland as the war's best pilot.
