French Language book. At the end of the Great War, military aviation was reorganized into aviation regiments. She is the heir to the glorious past, forged in fire, of the squadrons which fought for four years, above the trenches. Some of its regiments will in turn experience the ordeal of air operations, in the Levant and Morocco. The air force, which is gradually gaining autonomy, also relies on a structure made up of schools, technical support services, but also a corps of balloonists and, briefly, counter-aircraft defence units. . The symbolism used in squadrons is rich and varied, sometimes unique, both on aircraft and on unit emblems. The Air Force took off in 1933 but was not created ex nihilo, however: it took up the torch of this military aeronautics of the interwar period, relying on the proven foundation of its organization, its practices and its traditions.

This work was, from the beginning of its writing, designed as a continuation of the work “the squadrons of military aeronautics 1912-1920”, one of the very latest productions of the Historical Service of the Air Force, published in 2004. It is also intended to be a synthesis of the knowledge patiently accumulated by researchers and enthusiasts of aeronautical history. It benefits from previously unpublished aircraft profiles and original insignia designs which were developed from period photographs or documents. Four indexes should allow easy access to a unit, based on an aviator, a badge, a place or even its traditions.
