Richthofen inspects his 61st victory, No. 46 Squadron Algernon Bird's downed Sopwith Pup near Bousbeque. Bird is reported to have directed his forced landing into a tree to destroy his machine, and the ditch visible underneath the airplane likely aided that endeavor. Note Anthony Fokker, wearing Bird's confiscated leather flight jacket, is leaning into the cockpit.
