I have a book at home about this. It is a great read. Soon as I get home I'll post the title and the author.

Cheers y'all,

This is pretty interesting, I've seen a couple of different tellings of this, all suggest that Richthofen was killed by ground fire. As a child I was fascinated by these stories, I guess I still am.
