Americans in WW1

[Milosh]

I know that many Americans joined the RAF/RCAF during WW2 but didn't know that many joined the RFC/RAF during WW1 and became aces. Some were also transferred from USAAC.

Found out this while read Osprey's SE 5/5a Aces of WW1.

The question: How many Americans served for other countries in WW1 besides the 38 that served with the Lafayette Escondrille?

The casualty figures go some way to explaining why, for some countries, the WW1 is a sore subject, even after all these years.
