You might think the first Ace was Eddie Rickenbacker, but it wasn't. Nor was this Ace flying a modern-day jet with technology, speed, and maneuverability. He was in a simple biplane.
It is noteworthy that Lt. Campbell was balancing personal moral questions against the security of our country in the midst of war. This is the warriors dilemma.
Thank you for revealing another "hidden hero" from history. What a brave young warrior.

Let us never forget Lt. Douglas Campbell, America’s first Ace!
Let us never forget the Brave, who fought for our nation, their family and their future generations!
Thanks to all of you!
We must never forget!!
Thank you, Tara!
Lt. Douglas Campbell should be as well known as Lt. Eddie Rickenbacker but we tend to only remember the one with the most, regardless of the feat.
Thank you Tara. Yes, let's remember Douglas Campbell as the first WW1 flying Ace. Spread the word!
