Re: Gottfried Dulias

There was suppose to be some big shindig at the USAF Academy and GD was to go. Anyone know what happened when it was found out there was a question about his being an authentic LW ace?

Re: Gottfried Dulias

Hello all,

As I posted in a previous post here I have been researching Gottfried Dulias' claims which he makes in his book "Another bowl of Kapusta".
I have taken a number of points from his book in the chapter where he describes his flying career in World War II. I verified most of his claims regarding his flying in a number of books, I also sent some letters to people and organisations.
Although I can’t give specific details yet I must say that I have to concluded that I don’t think he was a pilot in the Luftwaffe.

As soon as I finished my thesis on Mr. Dulias I will post some of my findings here.

Kind regards,

Thijs Lepstra

Re: Gottfried Dulias

Mr. Dulias claims he had breakfast with Guenther Rall in Washington a couple of years ago. Hm. Recently, Rall showed me kind of a home-made magazine he had just been sent accidently showing 82 year old Dulias in uniform and full medals on the front cover. His comment: "Look at that guy - completely nuts, isn't he?"...

Re: Gottfried Dulias

Among those who know, people like him are called "schräge Fürsten" (queer Dukes). There are quite a few of them around - enough to fill a squadron. Sometimes I think somebody should write the War Diary of that outfit. Extremely entertaining stuff.

Re: Gottfried Dulias

Hey, at least von Werra could claim to have been a genuine Jagdflieger, and he did score a "home run".
