Two pilots of the famous Lafayette Escadrille are seen cavorting over Behonne Airfield, France on the morning of September 6, 1916. Paul Pavelka is in his Nieuport 16, painted in a rather cow-like scheme complete with his "brand" on the side, reflecting his pre-war days as a cowboy. Bert Hall is flying his Nieuport 21 in a more mundane factory scheme of aluminum-colored dope with only his personal "$" to break the monotony.

Commissioned to be used and first published on the cover of "Over the Front" vol.24 no.4 winter 09 "Pavelka's Nieuport 16".
