THE LEGENDARY HANS-JOACHIM MARSEILLE – “THE STAR OF AFRICA”
This model commemorates Hans-Joachim Marseille, the second most famous person in the German African Corps after Erwin Rommel. With 158 confirmed air victories in just two years, Marseille was remarkable for downing 61 fighters in September 1942 alone – including 17 in a single day. His legendary skill was matched only by his maverick personality, known for distancing himself from state ideology with humor and pranks that targeted even high-ranking officials.
