    Historical notes - So first off, I have no access to a desert map in the simulator I use to make these. I used the closest map I could, and the kills actually took place very close to Cairo, which likely did have areas that did have some trees, fields, etc. Also, I definitely slightly mispronounced his name a couple times towards the end. Sorry, I did my best. Obviously, some of the plane models may not be exactly accurate, but I have tried to make it as close as possible to what the records show. Hope you guys enjoy!

    Hans Jochen Marseille is one of the Luftwaffe aces featured in the book "Horrido!" He had 158 victories to his name when he was killed in that 30Sep1942 tragic accident. And he was also one of the recipients of the "Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds," of which only 27 were awarded in the entire Wehrmacht during all of World War 2. Even the highest scoring fighter ace in history, Erich Hartmann (352 kills), paid tribute to Marseille when he told his soviet captors that "Marseille was seen as the better fighter pilot than himself (Hartmann)" since the Germans considers "1 Western pilot equivalent to 3 soviet pilots." That statement earned Hartmann more beatings & a longer time in solitary confinement. Hartmann was released by the soviets in 1955, ten years after he surrendered with JG-52.

      @@fritzvongerbel8999 Yes; his plane malfunctioned and oily smoke filled the cockpit & blinded him. It also kind of disoriented him because his plane was not in a favorable position when he was preparing to bail out and he hit part of the aircraft when he jumped. When they found his body, the ring that was supposed to release his chute was still intact and there were no signs of any attempt by the pilot of opening it. Most historians concluded that Marseille was probably killed or knocked out when he hit his plane and maybe unconscious or already dead when he fell to earth. Pls. try to find the "Horrido" book on German aces of WW2; it's really worth the time to read the book.

    What made Marseille amazing was the way he devised to demolish British circling defensive formations. He was witnessed diving in and out of those large formations at high speed like a Barracuda in the middle of drove a sardine shooting down enemy planes with accuracy each time he either plunged from above or recalled the plane upward from below at full deflection making for pilots that should have covered their squadron mate impossible to follow.
    Marseille must have been a wonderous shooter as deflection shooting was actively discouraged during training of pilots as being too difficult for such high speed planes, and he was also often found to have shot just a handful of rounds while coming back with multiple victories in the same sortie.

    Great historical recreation! One of Marseille's tricks to shoot a plane out of a defensive "Lufbury" circle was to dive directly below it, pull up abruptly and pass between two planes in the circle but he flashed by so fast, coming up from a blind spot that he was gone before the plane behind him got a chance to shoot, and as he flashed through the Lufbury he gave one well-timed squirt and the plane ahead went down!

On 6 June 1942 in 11 minutes, using this method Marseille shot down 6 Tomahawk aircraft from no 5 Squadron of the USA AF.

    So, the ladies were such a distraction that the Luftwaffe sent him to North Africa? Ironically enough, one of my crew members when I was an armorer at a USAF fighter base in Germany in the early 1960s had the same problem. We were regularly sent to Wheelus AFB in Libya for a month at a time in support of the fighter gunnery and bombing training operations there. On one trip, this guy got to missing female companionship so much that he determined to go into Tripoli one night and find some action. I tried to discourage him, as I knew of no safe way he could accomplish his task in a city so lacking in opportunity. He went anyway, and came back the next morning claiming mission accomplished. Turns out that the presence of the former Italian occupiers of Libya had not disappeared completely--he had found an Italian-run cat house equipped with at least one willing Italian girl. The boy had determination, I tell you.

    For anyone who finds this pilot and the European air war of WW2 interesting, I cannot recommend enough the book 'A Higher Call', which goes over the experiences of Franz Stigler and Charlie Brown in detail, and a number of other notable figures they cross paths with. Stigler's memories of Marseille are fascinating and offer some insight into his state of mind and the absurdity of war. Stigler survived the war, and the descriptions of flying the 262 in unbelievably appalling conditions (of course well after any sane nation should have surrendered) are spellbinding. There are interviews with both Stigler and Brown (and other surviving airmen from Ye Olde Pub) available on RUclips for viewing.

      I read the book a few years ago. A fantastic read! The conditions these Luftwafe pilots endured in North Africa were brutal. They slept at night in foxholes in the open because it was too dangerous to sleep in a building because their bases were routinely attacked by the British and Americans. The food was hardly fit to eat. They lived a surreal life from one day to the next, going up flying several missions each day, knowing that the odds were against them finishing the each day and each week alive. Stigler was a true hero for Germany. To protect their own careers top Nazi officials often accused the Luftwafe fighter pilots of cowardice and blamed them for the war going against Germany. After the war many German civilians bought into this story and blamed the Luftwafe fighter pilots for not doing their job which led the destruction of Germany through massive allied bombings. These warriors went up time after time until they were killed or too crippled to fly again. Stigler found there was no way to communicate to German civilians the level of sacrifice these pilots gave. The months immediately after teh war ended were very harsh times for Germany. The level of sacrifice and heroism by Luftwafe fighter pilots far exceeded anything the British or American fighter pilots did. Through most of the war they were outnumbered and always short on fuel, ammunition, parts and support. Yes, they fought on bravely for months and years after a time when Germany should have surrendered.

Tragically, he then died in an accident. The very early versions of Bf 109 G 2 had this terrible problems with the engine. Marseille represented the best traditions of German military in WWII.

    Marseille was known for 2 skills. Incredible pilot skills, he could do "impossible" stuff with the 109.
    He was a master of deflection shooting. He would slow down his plane, aim carefully and shoot like a sniper. This was described by other pilot as "impossible shots". Very long distance, the enemy pilot not even knowing he was in danger. The hits always making the same pattern, first hits in the engine, backwards, ending in the cockpit.
    The master, Erich Hartmann, described this skills as incredible, he had nothing like it himself. He had to fly very close and shoot at point blank, if he wanted to hit anything. Thus often taking debris damage from the defeated enemy plane.

    Something from world war two I found mind blowing. Was when I understood how my veteran father and his seven infantry man crew worked with one tank through a city. "It started in the cities of Italy," he said. The tank would park and he and six others. His sergeant who carrier a Sten gun, two explosives engineers, four riflemen, one Bren gunner would approach the row of buildings. They would never go up the street or outside the buildings at all when they could help it. Instead they would blow their way through the walls all the way to the far end of the block. They called it mouse holing, one of the explosive engineers had a doctors stethoscope and would listen to make sure the room they were about to enter was empty. Then they would blow a small hole and pass through. Sometimes on the first floor, sometimes on another floor. It just depended on the block of buildings. They would do this all the way to the far end of the block. Where they would then pause to spot for the enemy. Once the sergeant spotted a 88 howitzer, being pulled by horses and setting up to hit their tank posted at the far end of the block. He instructed my daddy to run back to the tank and tell it where to shoot the howitzer. My dad was the smallest man on the crew but the fastest runner and he never forgot where the mouse holes all were. He ran all the way back to the tank. Through all of the mouse holed buildings and by the time he pointed out the howitzer's position, that big 88 howitzer gun had taken two shots that missed their tank both times, hitting a railroad track immediately behind them. He pointed at the 88's position, the tank fired and nailed it. Everything went flying, he said. The men, the horses and the gun all vanished in smoke. I asked him what kind of a tank was it that he followed. I don't know, he said. But it had a twenty one painted on a box that was mounted to the back of the turret and a little white Canada on the rear corner. The other guys carried their web gear and all their stuff with them but I never did. Everything I had was in that box, all I carried was my rifle, ammo and two grenades' he said. I enjoyed your video of the fighter pilots and thought you might want to check something like this infantry and tank working together story.

      I too have often wondered this and I'm usually not able to get much, but he's what I have gathered. Firstly, he was a very good and aggressive pilot, but a lot of his success was due to his almost godlike deflection shooting ie. he put the bullets to where he thought his enemy was going to be rather than spray n' pray, so he'd knock out engines with just one or two squeezes of the trigger. Enemy pilots can't fight back with no engine. sometimes using less than 20 shells and bullets per kill. I'm sorry thats probably not enough but thats all I've read.

      Absolutely this guy was a great fighter pilot, the numbers tell the story, in part, and in more ways than we think at first glance. Look how many times he himself was shot down, if he was the best of the best, why was he shot down so many times? It’s because there is so much luck involved here. Most attacks are surprise attacks from behind and even the best pilot and his wing man can’t catch everything.
      A big deal is made about these huge kill counts racked up by German pilots, as if they really were the master race, but this is not the case. Consider what really was going on here.
      German pilots fought until they were killed in action. We killed most of their aces, and that is great because I hate those bastards, I hate all Nazis.
      Secondly, and very importantly, they started the war with a very experienced combat fighter pilot force. This gave them a huge advantage and they wrapped up huge kill counts against inexperienced allied pilots. By the end of the war this scenario was completely reversed, Ha ha ha. Most of our fighter pilot aces survived the war, most of theirs did not, this is a fact, a 90% mortality rate amongst Nazi bastard pilots
      And then there is the eastern front where it was a turkey shoot against a clearly inferior Russian air force. Even so, by mass of numbers, the Russians defeated the Nazis shitheads on the eastern front, and they found the German hero dead by his own hand in Berlin, the Russians took Berlin from the master race.
      Too many of you out there are worshiping these German bastard aviators as if they were some kind of war gods, invincible, and all that, but as we see here in this video, and in the history, Marseille was shot down several times, and when his plane malfunctioned, he wasn’t so smart as to get out quick, was he? Didn’t he make mistakes here, as he made many times in combat?
      Grow up children and stop worshiping Nazi bastards, we kicked the shit out of them in 2 world wars, and it’s not likely they’re coming back for a third round, and we can all be thankful of that. I hate them, can’t you tell, A hatred richly deserved. I wish we would’ve killed every goddamn one of them, including the one you guys worship the most, Hartman, Eastern front turkey shoot Hartman.

    Marseille's greatest strengths were his deflection shooting and his ability to manipulate his flaps, stabilizers, and air brakes in such a way that allowed his aircraft to have the same turning radius as a Spitfire. This technique was known to all Luftwaffe pilots but it was a risky business, not many German pilots were willing to take the chance. His deflection shooting was unmatched - he returned from one mission in which he claimed one kill. He told the assorted personnel who gathered around that he only used seven rounds in this kill. No-one believed him until his mechanic/armorer actually opened the engine cover and counted the expended rounds . . . only seven cartridges had been used. Cheers!

    Marseille was a gifted deflection shooter. On the day he scored 17 kills, he showed how he had perfected deflection shooting. He and his wingman spotted an Allied formation. The typical British defensive tactic of flying a Lufbery circle. The tactic was to fly in a slowly descending circle making it very difficult for enemy pilots to shoot the Allied pilots. Each pilot in the circle would defend the plane in front of him. What Marseille would do is fly above the circle, then dive down and pull-up into the circle, fire a quick burst at his target and roll out of the formation before the trailing pilot could react. Examination of the ground crashes showed that the bullets would start in the engine and trail back to the cockpit.

    JG27 had a lot of great pilots Franz Stigler Johan stienhoft . Might be spelled incorrect but you get the picture. And of course Hans . What a shame he was only 22.

    The Kubelwagen the Italians painted for him with ‘Otto’ was presented to him for getting an actual 8 victories in one day not part of a bigger victory count of the 1st of September. That particular Kubelwagen was left behind in the western desert after JG27 left the theatre shortly after Marseille’s death and the photo you have posted in the video is from when JG3 pilots were in North Africa after JG27 had been withdrawn due to the losses of the three best aces, and subsequent low morale. You have taken all the information off Wikipedia and included it on the video without checking any other sources.

      I HIGHLY recommend the new book series by Christopher Shores on the Air War in the Med; the books are HUGE and impeccably documented in the classic Shores style; they're pricey but HJM is only in the first two books==the rest continue the war in the med to the fall of Tunisia and onward past the invasion of Sicily, Southern Italy and the Anzio break out. The NEXT volume will follow to the fall of Rome to the Surrender in Italy.

    Another great vid TJ3, enjoyed it. Don´t let the comments on your pronounciations bother you as German and French are hard for English speaking people in general. From what I know of Marseille you told his story quite accurately. Of course his claims are disputed as it is the case with all cocky young pilots. Never mind....on you tube there is a lot of material about Marseille...even a complete movie: der Stern von Afrika ( the star of Africa).
