This may have been mentioned in an earlier Bishop thread (I couldn't keep up with all of them) but has anyone commented on the story which appeared in "The Courage of The Early Morning" pp.174-175. The author, Bishop's son, describes his father's 1928 visit to Berlin, and his warm reception by Udet, Goering,et al. Apparently he was made the first and only foreign member of the German Ace Association.
Is this factual? If so, it would appear that his German opponents thought more of him then some of this site's members flying their computers in 2001! |
