The Groupe de Chasse was Belgium's first dedicated fighter wing.
It was created in March 1918 at Les Moëres aerodrome near Veurne.
On request of King Albert I, Captain-commandant Fernand Jacquet was appointed Commanding Officer, and the Groupe de Chasse also became known as the Groupe Jaquet.
[1][2] By war's end, the group was able to support the offensive, and could manage to get up to 40 aircraft airborne at short notice.
