"Colonel Adolf Dickfeld"
20 x 24 Lithograph ---- 600 Print Limited Edition signed by Col. Adolf Dickfeld and the Artist.
Adolf Dickfeld was born on 20 February 1910 in Jüterbog, Mark Brandenburg. As a student
he demonstrated his technical gifts by establishing a radio link between a ship in the Arctic
and one in the Antarctic, and by setting up Europe's highest radio station on Mont Blanc. As
well, in 1928, he played a leading role in the rescuing of the crew of the downed airship
"Italia", commanded by Admiral Noble, after receiving the ship's SOS. After graduating he
took up flying and was later trained as a fighter pilot while a reservist. At the outbreak of war
Dickfeld was assigned to III/JG 52 and flew missions over France, England, Greece and Crete
before his unit transferred to Rumania. With the outbreak of war against the Soviet Union,
Adolf Dickfeld soon became a well-known fighter pilot because of his numerous victories
achieved in a short period of time. In 1942 he scored and amazing series of victories (11on
the 8th of May, 9 on the 14th and 10 on the 18th) which resulted in the awarding of the
Knight's Cross with Oakleaves. Soon afterward, Dickfeld was "Gruppenkommandeur" of II/JG
2, which was immediately transferred to North Africa. He achieved further victories in Tunisia
before being injured in a takeoff accident. After recovering from his injuries, Dickfeld was
appointed "Gruppenkommandeur" II/JG 11, a Reich Defense unit based in the
Bremen-Helgoland area of northern Germany. He scored further kills against the
Anglo-American air forces before being appointed of "General of the Replacement Luftwaffe"
in the RLM in Berlin. Dickfeld once again flew operational sorties shortly before the end of the
war, against advancing Soviet forces in the Lansberg-Küstrin area. Finally, Dickfeld was
charged by Göring with the formations of a fighter unit equipped with the Heinkel He 162 jet
fighter. He flew a number of sorties in the He 162, scoring one victory. During the Second
World War Adolf Dickfeld flew a total of 1,072 combat missions and scored 151 victories, 136
of which were confirmed.
