Air War Publications is very pleased to announce the release of the latest in our series of Jagdgeschwader 2 pilot biographies, this time featuring 43-victory ace and Ritterkreuz winner Kurt Goltzsch. The article can be downloaded from our website: http://airwarpublications.com/produc...kurt-goltzsch/. Goltzsch was a long-serving member of the Wehrmacht, and flew with Jagdgeschwader 2 between 1940 and his wounding in September 1943. He was particularly effective as a unit leader in the summer of 1943, by which time he was one of the few veterans left in his Staffel.
The 16-page article, written by Leo Etgen, Andrew Arthy and Morten Jessen, features fifteen photographs, a colour map, and two colour profiles by aviation artist Anders Hjortsberg. Goltzsch was quite a modest man, so it was a difficult task to research him, but we hope we've been able to not only tell the story of his military service, but also reveal a little about his personality and life as well. We hope you find our work to be of interest.
Regards,
Andrew & Morten
