Area of Science:

  • Aviation History
  • Military Medicine
  • Aerospace Engineering

Background:

  • The history of air evacuation in the U.S. Army (1918-1924) is often associated with the JN-4 "Jennie" and DH-4 aircraft.
  • Limited documentation exists regarding other aircraft types employed during this era.

Observation:

  • Research into historical records and archives was conducted to identify lesser-known air ambulance conversions.
  • Focus was placed on aircraft utilized at Kelly Field, Texas, during the specified period.

Findings:

  • An "unknown" aircraft, distinct from the JN-4 and DH-4, was identified and converted for air ambulance use.
  • This previously undocumented aircraft played a role in U.S. Army air evacuation efforts.

Implications:
