"Flames were observed 300 rect hlgh,

"All three officers are safe, but TIER
aeroplanes have been lost.
"The feat would appear 10 nave oeen
in every respect remarkable, having re-
GARD to the distance Of over 100 mlleS
nenetrated into country held by the

attack had put the enemy on their
GUARD and enabled them to mount anti
aircraft guns" .L
The previous aerial raid Of British
naval airmen was made on Cologne ana
Dusseldorf from Belgium on Septem-
bcr %. The attack on Dusseldorf was
nqiciaIIv reportod as successful. Lieu

bombs there on the Zeppelin shed,
,weoping down to within 400 feet Of
his target. The attack on Cologne at
that time apparently failed, so far "a
