Manfred von Richthofen

"The English had hit upon a splendid joke. They intended to catch me or to bring me down."

- Manfred von Richthofen

Manfred von Richthofen, more famously known as the Red Baron, was a German fighter pilot who served during the First World War. He quickly gained infamy as the top ace of the war, with eighty confirmed victories to his credit. He was first transferred to his now-famous "Flying Circus" unit in 1915, where he became a national hero and a symbol of respect and terror to his foes. He painted his Fokker Dr. I triplane red to inspire fear and as a symbol of contempt to his foes. One of his most famous victories came in 1916 against British ace Lanoe Hawker. During a battle in 1918, the Red Baron was shot down and killed, although the identity of his killer has been a source of debate.
