Synopsis
This book tells the story of one of World War I's most famous squadrons, Spa. 124 - the only French squadron made up entirely of American volunteers (save for the commander and executive officer.) Organised in April 1916, the group was successively dubbed the Escadrille Americaine, Escadrille des Volontaires and finally the Escadrille Lafayette. Its achievements were modest, but it included several colourful characters who captured the public imagination and played a major role in gaining American sympathy for the Allied cause. When the United States finally entered the war, many Lafayette veterans helped prepare US Army Air Service and Navy pilots for combat, although a few chose to stay on with the French.

    I purchased a computer from this seller. It was a little late but that wasn't the sellers fault. It was delayed by USPS. However when it arrived it was packed well and in great condition. I am so glad I made this purchase. The computer had very little cosmetic wear issues and was almost in excellent condition. It is a great computer and I was able to do exactly what I wanted to do with it. I would definitely recommend this seller.

    Tried to contact the seller about the way everything was packaged all the cards on the figures were bent and creased when they arrived they looked nothing like the pictures. Very dissatisfied. I sent the seller a text to resolve the situation never heard a word back.

    Incredible color profiles

    Incredible but not over lengthy details on pilots and their aircraft - great color profiles.
