These seasoned fighter pilots enjoy a moment of rare tranquility amidst the carnage of war as the lengthening sun glints across the frozen landscape, during the short days of winter.It was known as the Jagdverbände, the fighter arm of the Luftwaffe, and by June 1940 it boasted some of the world’s greatest fighter pilots. With tactics honed to perfection, these battle-seasoned veterans dominated the skies of Europe. But as the war progressed, the Luftwaffe fighter pilots faced another battle, the increasingly desperate war of attrition as the Allied air forces slowly, but inevitably, ground the German war machine into defeat. By early 1945 Allied air supremacy was overwhelming.And yet despite overwhelming odds, from within their ranks came the most successful air Aces ever to fly in combat.THE SIGNATURES The prints are personally autographed by a truly outstanding collection of Nine Luftwaffe fighter pilots who flew in those momentous air battles over Europe, including one of III./JG26’s most legendary commanders – General Walter KrupinskiUnteroffizier HUBERT-LUDWIG PFLAUM Iron CrossFeldwebel HEINZ RADLAUER Iron Cross Leutnant HELMUT BALLEWSKI Iron CrossFeldwebel ERNST GIEFING Iron CrossLeutnant NORBERT HANNIG Iron CrossUnteroffizier GERHADT KOTT Iron CrossMajor ERICH RUDORFFER Knights Cross with Oak Leaves & SwordsOberfeldwebel WILLI RESCHKE Knights CrossGeneralleutnant WALTER KRUPINSKI Knights Cross with Oak LeavesThis sold out edition is the perfect opportunity for enthusiasts to acquire an epic piece with outstanding autographs, making this a historic collector's item.
