EDITORS COMMENTS
A Prize of the Enemy: The Captivating Sight of a Captured German Rumpler Taube Aircraft at Musee de l'Armee, L'Hotel des Invalides (circa 1916) Amidst the hallowed halls of Musee de l'Armee, nestled within the historic L'Hotel des Invalides in Paris, France, stands a relic of a bygone era: a captured German Rumpler Taube aircraft from World War One. This iron dove, a symbol of the Great War's aerial combat, is a testament to the fierce competition between the German and Allied forces in the skies above Europe. The Rumpler Taube, designed by the German aircraft manufacturer Rumpler Flugzeugwerke, was a two-seat, biplane reconnaissance aircraft that first took flight in 1913. With its distinctive cross markings and sleek design, it quickly became a formidable presence in the skies during the early years of the war. This particular Taube, captured by the French forces around 1916, now proudly stands as a trophy of victory. As you approach the exhibit, the intricate details of the Taube's construction come into focus. Its wings, coated in a faded green hue, stretch out like the wings of a giant bird, ready to take flight once more. The cross markings, a symbol of the German military, now serve as a reminder of the fierce battles that once raged in the skies above. For those fortunate enough to have witnessed the Taube in flight during the war, the experience was nothing short of breathtaking. Footage of the Rumpler Taube in action can still be found on YouTube, offering a glimpse into the past and the thrill of aerial combat during the First World War. As you leave the exhibit, the Taube's haunting presence lingers, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the Great War and the enduring allure of the skies above.
