Description: Kurt Schulze was born in Germany in 1921. After graduating from High School in Berlin, Kurt entered German military service in 1939 as a Cadet with the Air Signals Corps. In September of 1943, he received his wings as a pilot and in March 1944 started fighter pilot training. In July of 1944 he was assigned to *JG-5 in the Petsamo region of Finland, 300 miles north of the Arctic Circle at the Barents Sea and just 60 miles west of Murmansk, Russia. While there, he flew the Messerschmitt Bf-109 on 65 missions and was credited with three victories. On September 16,1944, he was shot down over the Russo-Finnish border. Rescued by German Mountain Troops, it took sometime to get back to his base, but when he arrived, his Commanding Officer pulled out a bottle and they celebrated his save return. Later he volunteered to fly daylight photo reconnaissance missions over Murmansk in a Bf-109. Kurt Schulze has hand signed this 8x10 Photo.
