    2. This picture was taken on the periode from 20 May 1918 to the late June 1918. The aircraft (Fokker Dr.I 586/17) originally belonged to Leutnant Hans Kirschstein (27 victories) and was later used by Udet.

      To my mind the man with cigarette was Ltn. Viktor von Pressentin gen. von Rautter (KIA on May 31, 1918) who was early served 3. Garde-Ulanen-Regiment. Another man dressed on white was Lt. d. R. Heinrich Dreckmann (I`m not sure).
