The most interesting part of the baron's story is that people actually believe 2 surgeons performed an autopsy on him.

Viewers who love military aviation history should read “airship of dreams” and “blood and fire” in the valiant heart trilogy. It’s about First World War military aviation, based on actual letters and diaries. A fantastic. read.
