Frieda von Richtofen (Frieda Weekley when she took up with Lawrence in 1912, they married after her divorce from Ernest Weekley two years later) was a distant relative, someone worked out that she was a fifth cousin once removed, of the 'Red Baron'.

You can always judge a Richthofen picture by his head bandage. Almost fatally wounded 6th july. 1917.
Certainly a ticket home he carried on flying regardless
