Lieutenant Leslie Jacob Rummell was a World War I flying ace credited with seven aerial victories. Rummell joined the 93d Aero Squadron on 7 August 1918. He shot down his first Fokker D.VII on 12 September over Thiacourt. His triple win on the 29th, when he downed two more Fokker D.VIIs and shared a win over an Albatros two-seater, won him the Distinguished Service Cross. He went on to score three more times in October, including a shared win with Chester Wright. Rummell died in the Influenza Pandemic of 1919, on 2 February.
