Werner Voss was a cavalry hussar at the outbreak of the First World War; he transferred to aviation as an observer in August 1915. He trained as a pilot during 1916, scored his first two victories on 27 November 1916, and soon became Richthofen's closest rival. On 8 April 1917 Voss received the Pour le Mérite (Blue Max), and five days later celebrated his twentieth birthday. Richthofen welcomed Voss to JG 1 as führer (leader) of Jasta (Hunting Flight) 10 in July. In late August Voss obtained the second Fokker Triplane-Richthofen had the first. Voss's new mount was tailor-made for his skills, and his victories soared. He shot down one adversary on 3 September, two on the 5th, one on the 6th, three on the 10th, and a further two the following day. In the morning of 23 September Voss downed a British DH4 to bring his score to 48, but he was eager for 50, because Richthofen's score had reached 62 that day.
