FILE - Undated portrait shows Manfred von Richthofen, the most successful German fighter pilot during WW I with 80 downed planes. Manfred von Richthofen, also known as the Red Baron, was killed in aerial combat on April 21, 1918. A Polish historian says he made a surprising find when poring through World War I archives the death certificate of Manfred von Richthofen. Maciej Kowalczyk said Monday Dec. 7, 2009, that he found the file last month while going through old German archives in the western Polish city of Ostrow Wielkopolski.
