Harold Edwards
Article Abstract:
Harold Edwards died in Brisbane, Australia, at the age of 102-years-old, and was a pilot in the 1914-1918 war. He was involved in shooting down the most famous German pilot, called the Red Baron, guarding the body. The Red Baron appears to have been shot by Australian gunners from the ground. The Red Baron, or Manfred von Richthoven, was buried with military honors in France, and Edwards engraved a plate for the coffin. Edwards was also an optometrist and lay preacher.
