Marcel Albert, a widely decorated World War II flying ace hailed as a hero of the French "Normandie-Niemen" squadron based in the Soviet Union, has died, officials and a relative said Wednesday. He was 92.
He died Monday of complications from cancer, said Albert's nephew, Jean Mavinger.…
Mavinger said Albert, who had no children, is survived by a 96-year-old sister and nieces and nephews. He said Albert had wanted to be buried next to his American-born wife, who died and was interred in Florida last year.
