André Gibert (31 March 1914 – 11 July 2003) was a Second World War fighter ace in the Free French Naval Forces and a member of the Groupe de chasse Île-de-France [fr].
In February 1941, André Gibert embarked as a sailor on a mixed cargo ship, deserting it at Saint Thomas in order to join England and General de Gaulle.
Passing through New York, Canada and a long crossing of twenty-five North Atlantic days in convoy, he was one of the first pilots to join General Charles de Gaulle and Free France.
Gibert was then sent to Jacksonville, Florida in the United States to command the formation of the 6FE flotilla, the first exploration squadron of the Free French Naval Forces, on a PBY Catalina Seaplane.
He carried out 250 war missions, received Legion of Honour, recipient of the Croix de Guerre with eight citations and the Aeronautical Medal when he returned to Air France on September 2, 1946 as a trainee pilot.
