Talking

Mate,
Those pic's have been around for a while but a really good find.

They are MvR with Schaefer his transport pilot, before Ltn Krefft.

CNOCK,

Nice find! This is a rare photo although it has been previously published in Ferko's "Richthofen." He is standing with Lt. Alfred Muller of Fl. Abt. 33. The photo in the book though is closely cropped. It's always fun to see some more of the background in photos.

Hi,

Also sold by the same man was a pic of Manfred and Lothar in their Albatros,
during visit at Moorsele.

Regards,

Cnock
