21st April 1918

105 years ago was a dark day. Germanys most famous and successful fighter pilot Manfred von Richthofen didn't return from a mission. After some speculation it was finally confirmed that he had died a hero's death. Respected by his enemies, he was buried with full military honour.

He was an inspiration to many during his lifetime and long after even to this day. Many lessons can be learned by following his example. The symbol of a Prussian officer. He stood by his principles and did his duty even in times of decline. He remained faithful to the end.

RIP Manfred von Richthofen (1892 - 1918).

“Wann wirst du müde neue felder zu erobern/Und lernest einmal pflanzen pflegen und dich freuen/An dem was blüht und grünt und reift in deinen gärten?”

“Deep is the hatred that the vulgar soul feels against beauty.”

Saying goodbye to my job was bittersweet. I will miss many of my colleagues very much. But I'm also looking forward to my new job.

"Der Vorwurf der Dummheit und der Unmoralität ist entscheidend, und da die Gesellschaft sich durch die beiden obersten Begriffe der Vernunft und der Moral bestimmt, so stellt dieser Vorwurf das Mittel dar, durch das man den Gegner aus dem Raume der Gesellschaft, also aus dem Raume der Menschheit und damit aus dem Raume des Gesetzes, verbannt."

"The accusation of stupidity and immorality is decisive, and since society is determined by the two supreme concepts of reason and morality, this accusation constitutes the means by which one banishes the opponent from the space of society, that is, from the space of humanity and thus from the space of the law."

Ernst von Salomon: Freikorps fighter - Part 1

Who was Ernst von Salomon?

Ernst Friedrich Karl von Salomon was born on September 25, 1902. From the late 1920s onwards he was known as author and screenwriter; his most popular book “Der Fragebogen” (The Questionnaire), was published in 1951 and became one of the best-selling books in post-war Germany. But before all that, Ernst von Salomon was a fighter. A fighter for his homeland, but not its government. Although he saw himself as an ardent nationalist and revolutionist, he did not know what kind of nation he was fighting for. He did not like the monarchy, he did not like the Weimar-style republic and, later, he did definitely did not like the dictatorship. In his youth, all he knew was that things couldn't stay the way they were. And he wanted to do his part to change it.

Von Salomon was sent to a cadet school to learn discipline in the true Prussian spirit. He later describes this experiences in his book "Der Kadett".

Von Salomon saw himself as a Prussian. He believed in everything he understood as "Prussianism" and that was a constant in his life that lasted forever. This attitude ensured that he was ready to go to war when the First World War broke out. But because of his age, he was of course not allowed to get involved and had to watch from the sidelines.

When the war ended, Ernst had just finished his high school diploma. But he did not want to accept that his beloved fatherland had lost the war and was now under the yoke of external powers. For him, the fight had only just begun.
