I touched it up just a bit for clarification...
"
Manfred von Richthofen a typical product of its time was, is no new realization. The author's criticism of "UNAPPROACHABILITY" by SUBORDINATES - if it really did apply - is no ground for reproach. Also Richthofens instrumentalization in the third REICH is an old hat. With a daring medical expert's assessment the most successful flighter pilot of the First World War is explained after a head injury in July 1917 even as MENTALLY DISABLED... (etc. SOME DRIVEL ON SPECULATION OVER MvR LACK OF LIAISON WITH OPP. SEX...) Which conclusion is the reader TO DRAW from it? Also the requirement to USE unknown sources from family archives CAUSES WONDER. In May 1945 Richthofens domicile in Schlesien was completely plundered. Certainly a critical Richthofen Biografie is overdue, particularly since the name in the tradition understanding of the German Federal Armed Forces plays a weighty role. Missing ones technical depth and ideologically motivated high-speed shots are not in demand however. Here someone has itself badly unfortunately lifted.(GET THE DRIFT?
