About the 3rd Aviation Instruction Center at Issoudun

I am searching every information, archives, photos, letters , articles, books, biographies etc concerning the the 3rd Aviation Instruction Center at Issoudun (Central France). I am living at Issoudun and I am studying this very important Training center. I would like to have contact with members of the families of the airmen and soldiers who trained there. Every info will be welcome.
I am 37 years old and I am teaching History and Geography.
My project is an historical study and a fight because we will never forget what the American cadets have done for France.
Thanking you in annticipation
Merci
Phil

Sounds like you are grateful for US help in WW1, as a Yank I am happy to see anyone thank us for our efforts. Please see posts from Stephen Skinner about the Frank Luke memorial and the fund raising efforts. I gave some money to the cause and if you can please let other people know about the fund raising effort. Also you may want to visit the site.

Thank you for you very kind words. If I could write a study on this Training camps all the money will go to the restoration of an old stone marker which is settled here since many years and its state is not good...
I will contact Luke site.
Merci
Phil
