Two military personnel stand beside the downed plane, offering a glimpse into the aviation history of the period. This image is part of a collection associated with Sgt Alexander Wilson of the 157th Aero Squadron, which operated primarily from this airfield. During World War I, aviation played a crucial role in reconnaissance and combat. The 157th Aero Squadron was vital for air support, and their work involved piloting various aircraft, some of which were experimental. The display of wrecked planes was not uncommon, as many air missions faced significant challenges from enemy forces and mechanical failures. This image serves as a reminder of the perilous nature of early aviation during wartime and the sacrifices made by pilots and crews. French Plane Crashed at Chatillon-sur-Seine depicts the scene of two soldiers next to a downed aircraft. The caption on the photo reads: "French Plane Crashed at Chatillon-sur-Seine, has two Letard Motors."
