French Ace Mistake?

[Bulldog90]

Hi all, I recently picked up the attached postcard of a French aviator. At the bottom of the image his name is listed as Ganeau, but I did not find him listed anywhere. I'm starting to think its a misprint and that he is really Hector Garraud, a thirteen victory ace from Spa 38. What do you guys think?

Hello Bulldog90,

here is another picture of Hector Garaud. It's from:

Over the front-A complete record of the fighter aces and units of the United States and French air service.

I'm very sure he is the man of your postcard.

Hmmm, interesting. I wonder how the postcard publisher made that mistake with the names, but I guess we will never know!
