In the years before World War I, he joined the army as a cadet. In the beginning of the war, he campaigned in France, Bulgaria, and Macedonia. He transferred to aviation as an aerial observer, and scored a victory in June 1916. He subsequently became a pilot, having won both classes of the Iron Cross.[2] On 1 June 1918, he became Staffelführer of Jagdstaffel 43. The squadron was mounted on Albatros D.III and Albatros D.Va fighters. It would remain at Haubourdin Aerodrome until 22 August,[3] by which time Gutknecht would have run his victory string to five confirmed and one unconfirmed. He was also promoted to oberleutnant.[4] Gutknecht won three more victories while remaining in command of Jasta 43 until 2 November 1918. He was in hospital from 25 October onwards to war's end, however.[5] Sources of information1. ^http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/germany/gutknecht.php 2. ^Above the Lines, p. 121. 3. ^http://www.aeroconservancy.com/sykes.htm Retrieved 9 July 2012. 4. ^Above the Lines, p. 121. 5. ^Above the Lines, p. 121.
