This WWII military biography chronicles the life of a legendary Nazi fighter pilot.
German Luftwaffe Captain Hans-Joachim Marseille, the "Star of Africa", is a legendary figure in the annals of military history. With 158 kills to his name, he was one of the rare recipients of the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds, the Third Reich's highest honor awarded for valor in combat.
Unlike other German fighter aces, Marseille is also a famous in the United States and other English-speaking countries. His rebellious nature, iconoclastic behavior, and early death have nourished his reputation just as greatly as his exceptional skill and chivalrous conduct as an adversary.
