The American Fighter Aces Album is a 543 page book that lists alphabetically and chronologically from the first "Ace" in World War I to the last "Ace" in Vietnam.
The Album contains a mini biography, many with a profile picture, of the 1,442 United States military pilots to obtain "Ace" status by being credited with at least 5 aerial combat victories. The album also contains a brief history of the American Fighter Aces, a listing of the aircraft flown by the Aces and their opponents, as well as a listing of the Aces with 20 or more victories and those that, at the time of printing, had received the Medal of Honor.
This is the 2002 album that was signed at the 2002 AFAA Reunion at The Museum of Flight in Seattle, WA. There were 35 Aces in attendance at the reunion, (Listed in one of the photos above) but the number of signatures varies by album. Autographs are signed on the inside front cover.(As seen in one of the photos) A fantastic collectible and historical reference if you love history and the men who made it.
