and does anyone know how tall was MvR? and Lothar?
Hello Manfred von Richthofen HU. On page 196-197 of Suzanne Hayes Fischer's book, Mother of Eagles The War Diary of Baroness von Richthofen, in footnote #30 is the following information on Manfred's height, ".....Manfred's cadet record should end any speculation as to his height or lack thereof; it shows that when he was age 18, he was 5 foot, 7 and 1/2 inches tall and weighed 147.7 pounds". This book is available from Schiffer Publishing. As to Lothar, I don't have any information. Best regards, Dave.

Many stories exist about what happened to MvR's medals, uniforms and other personal items. You can probably consider them all as "lost." Whatever still exists is in unknown collections.

MvR's medals

Hi friend,
see my thread

The Red Baron’s gift to Jasta 11 pilot Fritz Lübbert

to see what probably happened to MvR's Iron Cross (we'll never be 100% sure if it wasn't just a replica he have to Fritz, but I think it is a congenial episode anyway)
