Nice photos, but IDs are slightly off. The Camel is actually an Italian Hanriot HD-1, the Rumpler is actually a Halberstadt Cl.II, and the Nieuport is a 24 or 27. Good shots though, thanks for posting them.

That burst my bubble. I've been searching all over the internet for a Rumpler photo for a model I'm building.
Great photos.

Great picturesJack, thanks. If I might add something about the 95th Pursuit Squadron,...

The Kicking Mule of the 95th was authorized in 1917. It currently resides on the POF P-26 and was on the nose of the CF A-26. They were one of the squadrons Doolittle pulled his B-25 pilots from. They flew A-26s out of Pusan in Korea, and operated U2s out of Alconbury, England. At one time they were the longest uninterrupted operating squadron of the USAF. Teddy Roosevelt's youngest son, Quentin was killed in France while flying with the 95th.
