 The
Order
of Daedalians
honors, as its Founder Members, all WW I aviators who were commissioned as
officers and rated as military pilots no later than the Armistice on 11
November 1918. It perpetuates their names as the first to fly our country's
airplanes in time of war. The Order's membership of commissioned, warrant
and flight officer military pilots and WASPs, with its worldwide network of
Daedalian Flights and its comprehensive awards program, supports the
military services and other aerospace activities. For more on
