In WW1, the top fighter pilot Ace, with 80 kills/victories, was Germany’s Manfred von Richthofen, The Red Baron. He was finally shot down & killed, in his bright red Fokker Triplane, but who did it was debated until 1969. Even now, there may well be ongoing differences of opinion!. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.

 
I've always had questions.... but in a news clip in a national Australian newspaper "The Sun " in the early 90's, there was an article of an old digger who said on his death bed, how the red baron was still alive when he crashed and how they aparently killed him by bayonet while still in his plane,he said it was most shameful act he and other done.... did anybody else come across this article?

I've never come aross what i read ever again.
