Эскадрилья Лафайет была добровольческой эскадрой американцев, которые вылетели во Францию во время Первой мировой войны. Сто лет спустя, это все еще, пожалуй, самая известная истребительная эскадрилья, когда-либо поднимаемая в небо.
The Lafayette Escadrille was an all-volunteer squadron of Americans who flew for France during World War I. One hundred years later, it is still arguably the best-known fighter squadron ever to take to the skies. In this work the entire history of these gallant volunteers—who named themselves after the Marquis Lafayette, who came to America’s aid during its Revolution—is laid out in both text and pictorial form. In time for the centennial celebration, this work not only tells the fascinating story of the Lafayette Escadrille, it shows it.
