After becoming a German pilot, he gains the respect of others, including enemy pilots he has shot down, because of his exceptional skills and unique combat style. In one battle, Manfred shoots down British ace pilot Brown, and upon confirming his victory, he discovers that Brown is only injured and saves him. During this process, he meets a beautiful nurse (played by Lena Headey) and falls in love at first sight.

He later paints his aircraft a striking red and leads Squadron 11, becoming unstoppable at an altitude of 3,000 meters, thus earning the name "The Red Baron."
