Escadrille 67 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Escadrille 67
''Escadrille 67'' of the French Air Force was founded at Lyon-Bron Airport during the First World War, on 17 September 1915. On 24 September, they were assigned to the ''IV Armee'' of the French Army. By late October, the ''escadrille'' was assigned to the defense of Verdun.〔Franks, Bailey 1992, p. 95.〕 ==History==
Dubbed ''Escadrille N67'' for the Nieuport two-seaters they operated, the new unit performed numerous reconnaissance, photographic, artillery direction, and bombing missions. For their efforts, they were cited on 25 January 1916. In July, they were cited a second time, for engaging in 257 combats and downing 11 enemy aircraft. The second citation entitled the unit to wear a fourragere denoting a unit award of the ''Croix de guerre''; ''Escadrille N 67'' was the first aerial unit to win this award. During that Summer of 1916, the ''escadrille'' traded its two-seaters for Nieuport single-seater fighters. On 1 November 1916, the unit would be incorporated into ''Groupe de Combat 13'', joining ''Escadrille 65'', ''Escadrille 112'', and ''Escadrille N.124''.〔 After service with ''GC 13'', the ''escadrille'' was detached from the ''groupe'' on 1 June 1917. It was assigned to an ad hoc ''Groupe Provisoire de Bonneuil'' subordinated to ''III Armee''. After 1 August 1917, the ''escadrille'' re-equipped with ''SPAD'' fighters, becoming ''Escadrille SPA.67''. On 18 January 1918, it was posted to replace ''Escadrille 73'' in ''Groupe de Combat 12''. ''Escadrille SPA 67'' remained with ''GC 12'' until war's end. The ''escadrille'' was credited with 42 victories during the war.〔 ''Escadrille SPA 67'' remains an active part of the French Air Force.
