One of the most notable figures buried here is Michel Coiffard, a French fighter pilot from the First World War. Originally an infantryman, he was declared unfit for service after an injury, but managed to re-enlist – this time in the air force. As a member of escadrille 154, he specialised in shooting down German observation balloons, an extremely dangerous mission due to the heavy anti-aircraft defences. Coiffard shot down no fewer than 33 balloons, an exceptional feat. On 28 October 1918, he was fatally hit during a mission, but managed to land his aircraft safely. He died of his injuries shortly afterwards. His grave can be found in this necropolis, under number 1027 (but that number is incorrect, check the register).
