Can you ID the flyers?
This is a part of a photo from a collection of about 200+ photo's I will be posting on the web soon. Obviously, the first person on the left is Manfred von Richthofen. Any ideas who the others are? One person said the next in line looks like Arthur Rahn of Jasta 19.

I think I stumbled upon the answer in the Illustrated Red Baron page 82. Looks like it is MvR, Hauptmann Paul Freiherr von Pechmann and Oberleutnant Eduard Dostler. The fourth is unknown, but does wear the PLM.

Hi,
Yes, this was the parade for the Kaiser on 20 August 1917; there are many photos of this occasion - see Ferko's "Richthofen" page 51. From left to right are MvR, von Pechmann, Eduard Dostler and Rudolf Berthold. As PLM holders they held first place in line. Oblt. Paul Frhr von Pechmann was one of the few observers with the PLM, having only recently received it on 31 July 1917. Greg VanWyngarden
