Two French Military Officers in a Field, WWI French Pilot Album, circa 1915-1918

Two French military officers stand for a photograph in an open winter field, likely near an aerodrome in France during World War I. Their kepis and greatcoats are typical of French Army dress of the period. Preserved within a personal album dedicated to a French aviator, this faded print offers a glimpse into the wartime world of France's early military aviation service. Project: 218542
