US pilots

Bonjour,
I'm looking for the biography of two American pilots who were at the school of aviation of Tours (1917-1919):
  • George W Hayes
  • Barlett Beaman.
Not specially during WWI but after (Hayes was major in october 44 ans Beaman, general).
Thanks for your leads
Didier Lecoq

Didier -

The only information I have on hand regarding either man is that Bartlett Beaman was later assigned to the 12th Aero Squadron arriving on 27 October 1918 and remaining until the Armistice.

I have no other information post armistice.

Happy holidays,
Mike

Wings of Honor lists Bartlett Beaman as assigned to the 12th Observation Squadron from 2 September 1918 until 4 November 1918, when he transferred to the staff of the 4th Corps Observation Group.

Tom's got this one right - I used the same reference, but took the wrong dates....

Mea culpa....
