Red baron quotes

Answer 1

Manfred von Richthofen,The Red Baron, had many memorable quotes.These are among them,..1. Now I am within thirty yards of him. He must fall. The gun pours out its stream of lead. Then it jams. Then it reopens fire. That jam almost saved his life.

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

3. There were sometimes from forty to sixty English machines, but unfortunately the Germans were often in the minority. With them quality was more important than quantity.

4. My dear Excellency! I have not gone to war to collect cheese and eggs, but for another purpose.

5. It is a pity that my collection of trophies contains not a single Russian.

6. One can become enthusiastic over anything. For a time I was delighted with bomb throwing. It gave me a tremendous pleasure to bomb those fellows from above. --------------------------------------------------------

There are a few others,but this is enough to get an idea of the Baron's mind set.
