The photographer was just on the spot as Sergeant Klöpper, wearer of the Knight’s Cross, pilot in the Mölders fighter group, landed after a desperate air battle with Russian fighter pilots. He was thus able to snap the ace as he was holding up three fingers to signify three downs as the result of a single mission.
