Today is Manfred von Richthofen’s birthday!

Known as the Red Baron and, fun fact, he was also born in Silesia!

I get more and more interations with bloggers writing about Red Baron.

Well, why couldn't i share my meme about him? :)

So, here we go (yeah, it's in Polish, i created it first for my friends, who are from Poland as well as myself) :

Translation (cause most of Manfred von Richthofen bloggers don't understand Polish language, i suppose) :

"What would you mostly like to have on your family crest?"

MvR: "Yes."

:)

A rodaków proszę o niehejtowanie mnie za ten post!

Po pierwsze, Czerwony Baron osobiście nie miał powiązań z III rzeszą i nazistami; zginął dobre parę lat przed dojściem hitlera do władzy, wręcz parę lat przed utworzeniem nsdap.

Po drugie, owszem, Richthofen był Niemcem, walczył dla wrogiego nam, Polakom mocarstwa; jednak, moim zdaniem, zdobywanie, czy udostępnianie informacji o danej postaci historycznej, a nawet do pewnego stopnia interesowanie się historią danej postaci nie sprawia automatycznie, że w 100% tę postać popieramy, podzielamy wszystkie poglądy tego człowieka i zgadzamy się ze wszystkim, co ten ktoś robił, do czego dążył itd. Dlatego nie uważam, żeby moje nieduże zainteresowanie Czerwonym Baronem czyniło mnie ,,samo przez się'' niemiecką imperialistką, czy antypolską zwolenniczką zaborów ;)

Dziękuję za uwagę!

here have a perfectly normal and reasonable summary of WW1 air combat which I totally did not put way too much effort into

transcription (starting from bright yellow where the wheel is stopped):

your fucking plane incinerates you (death)

someone looked at your plane wrong (death)

get shot down by ground guns (death)

successful dogfight!!! (not death)

unsuccessful dogfight :( (death)

crash and die (death)

crash and don’t die (not death)

engage jasta 11 (death)

you have died of dysentery (death)

tried to dive and the wings broke off (death)

#apparently there was a super high turnover rate for pilots because they all kept dying #oh also fun fact they didn’t get parachutes because the dudes in charge thought that would encourage cowardice!#the wheel of wow #uh i mean ow #ww1 aviation #shitpost #death tw

The Red Baron, WWI. Soldiers examine what remains of Manfred von Richthofen's aircraft after he was shot down, and killed over Vaux-sur-Somme, France, just days before his 26th birthday, but by then already an aviation legend.

Wilfrid ‘Wop’ May – Canadian Flying Ace - 1919 Canadian flying ace in the First World War and a leading post-war aviator. He was the final Allied pilot to be pursued by Manfred von Richthofen before the German ace was shot down on the Western Front in 1918.
