Aircraft were first used in combat in the First Balkan War in 1912 by the Greek Army. I suggest removing this reference in the main text. ~~

I'm confused by the inclusion of a quote regarding darwinism and evolution at the introduction paragraph of the article. I've read a number of sources relating to the first world war, and only on the conservapedia page have I heard this vague reference to darwinism. I don't feel it's necessary, as it really was not a cause of WW1. Entangling alliances are by far the more important factor. Frankly, I think the current attempt to link it with evolution appears a desperate grasping at straws. {{unsigned|JasonN}}

They were actually first used in combat by the Greek army in the First Balkan War in 1912. I think the reference in the opening section should be removed in the interests of accuracy. [[User:NicosB|NicosB]] 02:29, 20 December 2011 (EST)
