'The first Frenchman after the war in Johannisthal.' Special long-range Bre 14 with fairing behind observer's head and external fuel tanks from old Breguet Br.M5 aircraft, increasing range to 1000 km. The pilot is Henry Roget with his fox terrier Folette and mechanic Rodes. They made a grand tour through Eastern Europe from 9 June to 8 September 1920. However, 9128 is also said to have belonged to the French military mission in Poland and to have made courier flights to Riga during the Polish-Soviet War (1919-1921).
