>Hermann Goring served alongside Manfred Von richoften, THE RED BARON, in his flying circus and later led his unit after he died>Scoring 22 A2A kills
>>65413021Crowe was good but the movie was typpical schlock.
>>65413021Goering was a pretty damn good pilot and guy who just wanted to indulge in his hobbies, until the drugs and ego went to his head.
>>65413021Göring was neger-tier gaudy and self absorbed, but he was also pretty based
>>65415664Just like Elon
>>65415672I’m sorry Elon is a pilot?
>>65415672Elon is a rocket and car tycoon businessman, how does that make him like Göring?
>>65415664Didn't he get hooked on drugs because of WWI injuries causing him constant pain?
>>65415724It was after getting shot during the 1923 putsch.
>>65415724That was Ernst Udet.>number 2 flying ace of WW1 and well known war hero>got addicted to heroin by Goering who was jealous and used him as a propoganda piece by the nazis>given a variety of make-work jobs and a steady supply of hard drugs by Goering in the new Luftwaffe to keep him out of the spotlight in order to prevent Udet from usurping him>ends up as chief of air logistics when WW2 breaks out>Hitler hands him the plans for Barbarossa and asks him to figure out how to make aerial resupply for the invasion work>Udet takes one look at the plans, realizes there's no fucking way it's gonna work, goes home and shoots himself in the head in his last moment of sobriety>Goering hides the suicide to look good and claims Udet got killed in action, like a dozen leading Luftwaffe aces crash and die flying out to attend his funeral
>>65415672O B S E S S E D
>>65415664Göring was a dickhead and sniffed his own farts far before any drugs hit him. At least according to my gramps who met him several times during his time in sweden. t svennejävel
>>65418256nice larp faggot
>>65418264Not even kidding, grandpa was an aircraft engineer, got interviewed about it for some shitty research docco. I'd post it if it wouldn't dox me in an instant.
>>65413021he was a based aristocrat in ww1 but ruined it in ww2 following hitlerino retarded orders of waging war against 7/8 of the worldimpossible taks, he was also a drug addict that fully realized it was a retardedf task. read several books about him
Reminder he was the only person in Jasta 11 that would not get invited to their reunions because nobody liked him.
He was the sort of person who would ostentatiously drink top-shelf liquor all by himself during dinners with the likes of Speer, so it is no wonder no one wanted to invite him.
>>65418678The thing that makes me most angry at Göring was his refusal to allow excess luftwaffe personnel from being folded into the heer as infantry replacements. Instead Germany got retarded, useless, completely incompetent luftwaffe "field divisions."Not like that lost them the war, but the sheer arrogance and retardation bugs me.
>>65415664Drugs are a noble hobby.
>>65418967Go take a shower I can smell you from here
>>65418710Sounds based
>>65418710>knew it was unwinnable >decides to live laugh love :3 :DD
>>65422649Getting drunk when no one else is drinking is not based
>>65423662No one else is drinking yet, there always needs a brave soul to break the ice and turn a dry night into a real party. Just like how it isn't a real shindig until someone is brave enough to play party rock anthem
>>65423734>Just like how it isn't a real shindig until someone is brave enough to play party rock anthemEw, you listen to shit like that?
>>65423801No, I fucking hate that song but it's the law. Either that or Gangnam Style, thems da rulez

It is curious that Hitler was tolerant of the extravagance of high-ranking party officials. Although he himself promoted various new architectural projects, those were, at the very least, undertakings of national significance.
>>65424989>Wore a toga around his mansion to greet guestsGonna start doing this
>>65415679His hobby is breeding women without ever having sex with them or seeing them naked
>>65413021I always read that this guy was a subhuman goof so it was kinda funny to read that he was a very accomplished pilot.also not a werhaboo but it's kinda sad what happened to his daughter
>>65418967
>>65413021Göring was described as the perfect diner guest, which I find amusing. He would like to invite him over for dinner at somepoint, but he's probably too busy.
>>65418256>>65418297Goebbels was right about Swedes and your grandpa was a faggot.If there's one thing people who met him generally agree on then it's that he was extremely hard to dislike.
>>65418685>>65418710>>65424833>>65428485Goering has been a target of the silliest slander. See >>65433219He was a jolly fat guy who loved jokes about his weight and was popular at every party.
>>65424821>gorringJesus Christ man, it's spelled Goering if your keyboard lacks an umlaut, it's not that hard.
>>65428485>always read that this guy was a subhuman goofMust be the American take on him. British docus always emphasize him as some sort of evil genius hedonist/bacchanalian who was limited by his own desires.
>>65433257Yeah whatever, should've won the war
>>65424821Yeah
>>65428477Fair enough.
>>65433260We tend to propagandize our enemies as cartoonishly retarded and inept, in the US. Which then makes it all the more painful when we can't defeat said cartoonishly retarded opponent
>>65418723I feel you the same way as when this moron hitler deicides to delay the stg 44 alongside numerous other retarded stuff

>>65418710>>65418723>The Goerings attended fashionable parties, entertained frequently, and dined three or four nights a week at Horcher's Restaurant. After an appetizer of oysters, caviar, or pate foie gras, Hermann would consume a suckling pig and all the trimmings with a bottle of Moselle at 7, then "snack" on sausage, cold pheasant, and beer four hours later.Late in the war Himmler tried to close Horcher's and other fine dining restaurants in Berlin calling them decadent, ungerman venues and citing their negative effect on the moral of the common German worker suffering from war shortages.Goering threw a major fit, shouting obscenities and calling high ranking SS bureaucrats sending them to bloody hell then turned Horcher's into an officer's club of the Luftwaffe's high command so that it could continue to operate.
>>65433226He was still a n*zi tho. Literally Trump
>>65424989You forgot that he had a younger brother that looked nothing like him (more like an aquintance of his mother), who was a woman's man, despised the nazis, openly mocked them, helped jews escape and only made it out alive because of his Hermann-get-out-of-jail-free card.
>>65441137>>65441141he was actually Hitlersexual
I consulted renowned historian Mark Felton Productions and he said that Hitler was pretty upset during the winter of 1941-1942 because his dog Blondi had a very small dog dong and this resulted in lackluster performance of Wehrmacht during 1942 summer campaign season.
>>65413021I migrated here out of my usual containment thread/board...While Göring served with the von Richtofen brothers (and cousin), they never shared a combat mission together. Rather, Göring was under Manfred's rank until his death and Lothar was above his rank until his injury which forced him to be hospital bound for the remainder of the war.Göring himself was never meant to be a fighter pilot to begin with, instead he an aerial observer for about a year (1915-1916), in that time he flew in four confirmed types.>A B series Albatros (perhaps a B.I or B.II, which were unarmed)>An Avitatik B.II (likely unarmed)>Albatros C.I>AEG G.IIHe scored two of his 22 aerial victories as observer, one in the Albatros C.I and another in the AEG G.II. The AEG G.II had a reputation for being a rather cumbersome aircraft, since it was primarily a bomber, so scoring a victory in one as an observer was enough to get him recognized for service in fighter aircraft, where he was trained.On the other side of training Göring flew five types.>Halberstadt D.II (one kill)>Albatros D.III (five kills)>Albatros D.V (ten kills)>Fokker Dr.I (no kills)>Fokker D.VII (four kills)It is of note that there were at least two D.VIIs that he flew, one of which being a D.VIIF, however, despite Göring's own claims, he never flew an all-white aircraft. In fact part of this was propaganda in the 1930s, but also some rather deceiving images around 1918 that would have apparently supported this claim. However, more recent research has shown (based on original photographs, accounts and also Kiwi WWI airplane autism) that the wings were more likely covered in one of two standard printed lozenge camouflages.
>>65445846Also an all white aircraft was generally not something pilots opted for. It was a standard scheme on Pfalz E.I and E.II aircraft, with some black bordering on the flying surfaces and cowling. This proved to be unpopular with aircrews, since the scheme resembled that of a notice of death made for fallen troops.Virtually every supposed "all-white" scheme can be debunked. Julius Buckler's Albatros D.V was natural wood, Rudolf Berthold's Fokker D.VII was scarlet and royal blue, and so forth. This is because of the nature of orthochromatic film, which makes scheme identification a bit of a pain.Another glaring error commonly misreported is August Raben's Fokker Dr.I being blue, a hoax purported additionally by fake fabric sample doctored by Rodney Gerrard of Hull who dedicated his life to making WWI scheme identification and history as much of a pain as possible (because he understood how the film worked). Gerard also lied about Werner Voss's final combat action, the existence of a Lieutenant Alan Wilcox, forging history logs of Jagdstaffel 18 (Raben's unit), doctored artifacts supposedly from Manfred von Richtofen's Fokker Dr.I, falsification of records surrounding Gotthard Sachsenberg and his squadron with the Marine-Jagdgeschwader, the list goes on.>t. Studied this for going on 20 years now.
