For those who don't know who Lt Edmond Marin le Meslée was:

Lt Edmond Marin le Meslée was the top scoring French Ace during the battle of France. He had 16 confirmed kills and 4 probables! During the armistice he remained in the French Vichy Air Force and was transfered to North Africa. After Operation Torch he joined the Free French. In February 1945 he was shot down by German flak, while flying a P-47 and was killed when his aircraft exploded.

He scored his first kill at January 11th 1940, the rest of his victories were made between May 12th and June 10th! All his victories were made in a Curtiss H-75,

Thanks Bruce for bringing this piece of history back to live!
