Alan, Greg and Scott,
Many thanks for the Udet article...it is quite interesting. It's a very helpful resource in that Udet's recollections are some which are not found elsewhere and he actually knew MvR.
The story on how Udet was invited to join JG1 differs from the other one that commonly appears...i.e. MvR was driving a car in the rain. He pulled up to Udet's aerodrome; wrote with his walking stick in the mud and asked Udet if he'd like to join the men of JG1.
Best Regards, FliegerJG1
