First black aviator

edit

One item I noticed that is wrong is that Eugene Bullard is credited with being the first black military pilot in history; this is wrong, it was in fact Ahmet Ali Çelikten. This fallacious fact needs to be removed — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djandersonza (talkcontribs) 07:05, 17 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Légions d'honneur (legion of honor)

edit

The "Casualties and honors" section states that the "The Corps [...] pilots were awarded [...] four Légions d'honneur" but the page at https://www.neam.org/lafayette-escadrille/honorroll.html lists 30 members of the corps who were awarded a legion of honor medal. What is the correct number, should this article be corrected, and would the neam.org web page be an authoritative enough citation? Tfjaa762 (talk) 21:18, 18 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

"confusion between the terms Lafayette Escadrille and Lafayette Flying Corps"

edit

Yeah, well, wouldn't this be the place then for explaining instead of complaining? --BjKa (talk) 22:41, 21 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Yep, I came to Wikipedia to learn more about the documentary "The Lafayette Escadrille" (2020) and was confused to find two similar articles here - neither of which mentions this documentary, by the way. I just tagged that sentence with "clarification needed." Muzilon (talk) 22:48, 9 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
