EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the remains of Baron Manfred von Richthofen's famed red triplane, lying in pieces at the aerodrome of No. 3 Squadron of the Australian Flying Corps near Bertangles during the First World War. The date is 22 April 1918. The image is a poignant reminder of the brutal realities of aerial combat during the Great War. The Baron, also known as the "Red Baron," was a German ace pilot with an impressive record of 80 confirmed victories. His demise came during a dogfight with Canadian pilot Roy Brown and British pilot Arthur Rhys Davies, who are among the allied officers seen in the photograph examining the wreckage. The debris of the plane, with its distinctive red fuselage and wings, lies scattered around the aerodrome, a testament to the fierce battles that took place in the skies above the Western Front. The transport of the fallen enemy pilot and the dismantling of his aircraft would have been an important task for the Allied forces, as the capture of such high-profile enemy equipment and personnel was a significant morale boost. The uniformed men in the photograph, a mix of British and Australian officers, stand proudly beside the wreckage, a clear indication of their victory. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of aviation and the First World War, providing a visual record of the events that unfolded on the battlefield and the aftermath of a significant moment in military history.
