reviewed Groupe de Combat 12, 'Les Cigognes': France's Ace Fighter Group in World War 1 (Aviation Elite Units Series, No. 18) on September 30, 2011 Groupe de Combat 12, 'Les Cigognes': France's Ace Fighter Group in World War 1
This is a must read for the military aviation enthusiast or World War I history buff. Mr. Hart's book Bloody April covers the crucial Spring of 1917 focusing on the British and Canadian assault as supported by the RFC and RNAS, and opposed by the Germans. Bloody April starts with an overview of the war to the point just prior to the Spring of '17. Mr. Hart then covers aviation technology to that point in history to include how aerial photography and gunfire support were utilized. Mr. Hart then moves into the air battles themselves with extensive first hand accounts - in some cases accounts of specific air battles from each side. Bloody April's final chapters cover crew life in and out of the cockpit. This is a fantastic book which provides a comprehensive look at the rapid pace of both technological advancement in aviation as well as the development of aerial combat tactics.
