A Brief History During the Great War the first true Air Ambulance flight was made when a Serbian officer was flown from the battlefield to hospital by a plane of the French Air Service. Although they are not a true air ambulance service, they do, obviously perform that function as part of their general duties. The first recorded British ambulance flight took place in 1917 in Turkey when a soldier in the Camel Corps who had been shot in the ankle was flown to hospital in a de Havilland DHH in 45 minutes. website.lineone.net /~dave.oliver/aa/history.htm   (1150 words)
