I found the following which mentions four U. S. Navy Sopwith Camel squadrons:
United States Marine Aviation - World War I
The First Marine Aviation Force was organized in Miami on June 16, 1918. Four land-based air squadrons were set up and provisionally named A, B, C and D. But later they were renamed 7, 8, 9 and 10. Once in France, the 7th and 8th Marine Aviation squadrons were located in the village of Oye and the 9th and 10th Marine Aviation squadrons were located at La Fresne. The 1st and 2nd Squadrons were located in St. Inglevert. The 3rd and 4th Squadrons were located in Campagne. These four squadrons were US Navy squadrons and flew Sopwith Camels. The headquarters for the Northern Bombing Group and its eight squadrons was temporarily located at a chateau in St. Inglevert, but it was later moved to the village of Autingues, next to La Fresne.
I've never seen anything else on these four squadrons. Has anyone else?
