Manfred von Richtofen was shot down on April 21, 1918 in Vaux-sur-Somme in northern France by ground fire from Australian and New Zealand troops. He became target-fixated and allowed his aircraft to drift across enemy lines.
Hello sandwichh! I am the copy editor who designed that page and selected the Associated Press photo in question. Your best bet to finding a copy would be to call or e-mail the Waco newspaper. Perhaps they would sell you the photo of the Civil War re-enactors. Hope that helps. Eric
During World War II, the Air Force was under the control of the Army and known as the U.S. Army Air Force. In 1947, it became a separate branch, the U.S. Air Force.
Hi, thewaywardwind, I placed this story on the Money&Markets page, along with a photo of a couple of F-22s in flight. However, I did not categorize this business briefs package to go to the Web so that is why you did not see it. Hope this helps. Eric Jensen copy editor
Interesting piece of trivia as to what the name "Rosebud" really meant and why it made Hearst so upset.

Thank you, EdithAnn. That interview with Herr Weiss remains one of my favorites.

I'm not sure if there is an organized bicycle riding group in Victoria. The good folks at Bill's Bikes might know. Give them a call at 575-6036.
