Excerpt of Prof. Busch's Letters Home

Event Narrative

"...The entire squadron has now driven to Kortryk for the transport of Brauneck's body. The Rittmstr. stayed here because he can't endure standing for long... ...The Rittmstr.'s father, Major von Richthofen, was here again in the afternoon. I was very pleased that he found my portraits of his son to be close likeness. The protrait I recently drew of the old gentleman and gave to the Rittmstr. as a gift gave the latter great joy... ...As Richthofen told me, his younger brother will go to Breslau at the beginning of August to finish his recovery in a clinic..."
