Mustering of Storks, Bonnemaison, France, 4th July 1917 by David Pentland. French Spad VIIs of the famous Groupe de Combat 12 Les Cigognes (The Storks) during a relative lull on the front.

Tribute to Georges Lachmann by Ivan Berryman. Georges Lachmann was a French Ace pilot credited with a total of 9 victories during World War One. He is shown here in his Spad S.VII armed with Le Prieur rockets lining up to claim one of four balloon victories, this being one of the three balloons he claimed in Russia in late 1917. Notable for becoming an Ace while surviving as a serving pilot from the beginning to the end of the war, he lived into his 70s and died in 1961. |
Capitaine Georges Guynemer by Ivan Berryman. One of Frances most venerated pilots in World War 1 was Capitaine Georges Guynemer whose final victory tally has never been fully established, although he has been officially credited with 53 kills. It is more likely, however, that his actual total was nearer to 88! He is shown here in his Spad S.VII having just claimed his 31st victim, a Gotha bomber. |
