About This File
This is a skin of American ace Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker's Spad XIII. Rickenbacker raced autos on the dangerous high-banked board tracks before the war. He would go on to own and operate the Indianapolis Motor Speedway years later.
In WWI he earned 26 victories, America's highest scoring ace until WWII. This earned him the French Croix de Guerre and the Medal of Honor.
