The French Air Force's helicopters were first deployed in 1950 to meet operational requirements in the war zones of Indochina and Algeria, where their crews and mechanics wrote their first pages of glory. In the early 1960s, they were stationed in France again, but were also deployed overseas and on foreign missions in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. After supporting ground forces in the Far East and North Africa, their crews then devoted themselves entirely to supporting Air Force units and also responded to requests from civil authorities in France and overseas. Since the mid-1960s, the helicopters have been grouped into squadrons, flights and aircrews, performing a variety of transport, support, airspace surveillance, fire support and assistance tasks on a daily basis. Fourteen different helicopters, from the Hiller 360 to the Caracal, from the Sikorsky H-19 to the Fennec, have already carried the Air Force's cockades under all the skies of the world, operated by women and men whose motto fight and rescue is more relevant than ever.
