Historically created in 1916, during WW1,the <u>First Squadron</u> has evolved through all these years to become the <strong>multirole F-16 Squadron</strong> that it is nowadays. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
In 1917, the squadron chooses the scotish thistle, and its motto "<em>Nemo me impune lacessit</em>", that can be translated <strong>"No one provoques me impunately".</strong></p>

Although the Defense supports us in many of our projetcs, it is difficult for a relatively small community (+- 40 people in a squadron) to gather all funds required for each plan. Therefore, it is our responsability to find investers ready to begin this journey with us. This is why, the use of <strong>crowdfunding</strong>, and consequently <strong>Kiss Kiss Bank Bank</strong><strong>, became obvious to us. </strong></p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Through this fund raising, we would like to give everyone the occasion to(re)discover <strong>military aviation</strong>, passionating universe that is almost unknown by the public, because of its profound nature.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Moreover, this collect will allow you to get this book at a preferential rate, in addition with unique rewards made for this anniversary.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Crowdfunding will allow us to pay <strong>edition and impression fees</strong>, as well as fees inherent to <strong>Kiss Kiss Bank Bank.</strong></p>

If the campaign overtsteps our hopes, we will have the possibility to enhance paper quality and the book overall quality, and maybe even allow this book to be sold by other means than this crowdfunding platform ? </p>
