April 9, 201214 yr #1 If you can name (posted to this thread only, no PM's) the title of the FIRST fully equiped US aviation unit to be ordered to Europe during WW1, I will send you (at no charge, in US only) five USMC buttons (my choice) from pre 1900 to WW2. You must agree to post picture of yourself and buttons here upon reciept. Good luck! (the sale buttons are located on this thread:) http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/ind...&hl=buttons
April 9, 201214 yr #2 I believe the answer is the 1st Reconnaissance Squadron, that arrived in France in April of 1917 ( part of the US Army Air Service). -Artur Sorry, they were named the 1st Aero Squadron during the war.

April 10, 201214 yr Author #8 OK - how about some clues. There are at least 7 threads on the Forum, which address this unit, its location, these includes photographs, and history of some of the men who were attached. One man attached to this unit, was awarded the CMofH in later years...
