I have it difficult with Count d'Hespel.
Must be Joseph d'Hespel and seems to be killed 1918...But I cannot find him amongst the BELGIAN WWI aviators! He is not to find into the book:
"Above Flanders Fields" which goes about Belgian Fighter Pilots during WWI! I have a postcard depicting him at Brasschaet-polygone (year of shot unknown!) as Caporal with his Deperdussin....I always thought he joined just as other pre-WWI aviators, our Army Aviators section...but?
Is someone enable to bring some light into my darkness?

Thanks!

JPL.
