Hi all,
I looked in some of my reference books such as
Mein Flieger Leben,
Jagd in Flanderns Himmel,
Flieger am Feind,
Jagdstaffel and
Der Schwartze Ritter. Two were pertinent to our discussion;
Mein Flieger Leben and
Jagd in Flanderns Himmel.
I'm not well versed in German so this was a challenge, but I did find these pages from Udet's
Mein Flieger Leben;
Page 67,
Page 68,
Could one of our more well versed German forum members translate those passages that are pertinent to Richthofen's Dr.I?
Thank you!
Best,
Dave W.
I could not find any passages citing 477/17 or "all-red" or "blood-red" or any "red" Dr.I's for Richthofen for the month of March in any passages of Bodenschatz's
Jagd in Flanderns Himmel. I would be pleased if someone would prove me wrong.
Dan-San, did you find any passages from Flanderns Himmel describing "red" triplanes from the March time period? If so which pages? Thank you!
