EDITORS COMMENTS
Un Vaillant: Pegoud, a brave aviator of the French Air Force, poses before his aircraft in this photograph taken in 1915. The image captures a moment of celebration as Pegoud's comrades presented him with a bouquet of flowers to mark his last citation. During World War I, Pegoud distinguished himself as a fighter pilot and pioneer of military aviation. He was a key figure in the development of air transport and reconnaissance, playing a crucial role in the French armed forces' air warfare. This photograph, titled "Un Vaillant: Pegoud photographie devant son appareil, un jour que ses camarades lui avaient offert un bouquet pour fêter sa dernière citation," was published in the French magazine L'Illustration in 1924 as part of the album "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919." Pegoud's bravery and contributions to the French air force during the war made him a national hero, and this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the human stories behind the history of military aviation.
