"Uncle Sam's Boys"
| Uncle Sam's Boys Limited edition giclee, 22.25" x 16.625" |
| Remarques Available $25 per remarque |
Remarque 1 -Nieuport 28
| Remarque 2 - Lt Eddie Rickenbacker |
Perhaps the most famous American Squadron of WW1 was the 94th Aero Squadron. The unit’s insignia, an
Uncle Sam Hat inside of a red circle (symbolic of the United States’ hat thrown into the ring) earned them the
nickname “Hat In the Ring” Squadron. Serving in the 94th were some of America’s most Illustrious pilots,
including Raoul Lufbery, who had already become famous as a member of the Lafayette Escadrille, and
Edward Rickenbacker, who would end the war as America’s highest scoring ace.
As one of four squadrons making up the first pursuit group, the 94th arrived in France in early 1918. For their
first few months of service the unit was equipped with the Nieuport 28, one of the most attractive allied
aircraft of the war. However, in July of 1918 design problems in the Nieuport 28’s wing caused the unit to
switch to the SPAD XIII, which they would fly for the duration of the war.
Uncle Sam’s Boys is a tribute to the “Hat In the Ring” squadron and the first aircraft which they made
famous, the Nieuport 28. Pictured from front to back are: Lt. Douglas Campbell. 6 victories, in “white 10”,
N6164; Lt. Edward Rickenbacker, 26 victories, in N6169 (this could also be Major John Huffer as both men
flew this aircraft); Lt James Meissner, 8 victories, flying “dark 14”, N6144; Lt Reed Chambers, 7 victories, in
“white 11”, N6179.
Printed on acid free rag paper, the edition consists of 250 prints, each of which is signed and numbered by
Russell Smith.
