The airfield might have been initially built by/for French Air Service as two of its "escadrilles" were stationed in Pretz until 13 September 1918. American [88th Aero Squadron]] spent a short spell in Pretz, 14 - 20 September, before go back to Souilly Aerodrome to be part of the newly-formed III Corps Observation Group. The next day, a French escadrille BR 236 arrived at PRetz, from where it flew heavy artillery mission for the American First Army until the end of war - it left the field on 25 November. Despite its very short time of use by the American Air Service, le field became known as Bregnet Field.
