FRANCE HOhORS
FOUR AMERICANS

From Somewhere in France
comes the story Of an impressive SER
vice held on Nov IA. in the honor of
the late Capt. Georges Buynemer. at
which Americans We're decorated for
valor.
1t occurred at the airdronle of a
noted fighting unit of the French air
service-from which the members of
the Lafayette Escadrille and their
French comrades daily go out to give
battle to the German airmen.
Here in a hollow square on the
flying field were drawn up the per-
sonnet of the four fighting squad
rons CHARTERED at this place. The
members listened to an inspiring ad-
dress by the conmandant of all the
French aeronautical forces.
Four Americans Decorated.
After the service there was a dis
tribution of the honors recently won
by French and American pilots. The
Americans decorated were Lieut.
Raoul Lufbery, now seventh on the
list of French aces, and Sergts Rob-
ert L. Rockwell, Robert Soubiran and
David Mckay.
Their citations were as follows:
Lufbery-"A remarkable pilot
who October "a in the course of three
successive patrols and seven close
combats, brought down his fourteenth
adversary and forced five others to
fall out of control
Rockwell-"A fighting pilot, bold
and skilful, who has had many bat
ties and met an enemy formation in
superior numbers Sept. "a, and forced
one opponent to land out of control
in his own lines"
Soubiran-"An American engaged
in the French air service since the
beginning of the war; member of the
Foreign Legion; took part in the bat
tie of the Aisne in 1914 and Cham
payne attack in 1915. wounded Oct

LANE JOINS navy
AER0NAUT|C SQUAD

Franklin X. Lane, Jr., son of the
Secretary of the Interior. has left the
ranks of Army aviators and joined
the Navy aviators to get quicker &C
ton against the Germans.
Learning that he would not have an
opportunity to join the American
flying corps until spring, young Lane
resiSsed his commission as first lieu
tensnt in the Army Aviation Corps
and applied for a commission as a
Navy aviator.
AS the Navy wanted aviators for
foreign service at once. Lieutenant
Lane had no difficulty in securing his
Navy commission. He will have the
rank and pay of lieutenant (junior
grade), which corresponds to the
Army rank of first lieutenant,
Lane was one of the first to quail
ify for commission in the Aviation
Section Of the Army Signal Corps.
He was only nineteen when he was
commissioned.

German View of
Disaster Which
Befell Zeppelins

Amsterdam, Nov. 30-The German
official view OF the disaster which be-
fell the Zeppelin fleet in France, is
that the loss of several airships was
due entirely to weather conditions
which are unlikely to occur again. It
is asserted that the disaster is not re-
garded as any argument against the
use of the Zeppelin as a military
weapon. The official Allgemeine lei
tung, says:
Enemy reports at first stated that
as many as six Zeppelins had been
lost, but it is now indisputably es-
tablished that only four were brought
down. The real and only cause of
the disaster is to be found in the
abnormal weather conditions. One
of those who took part in the journey
states that the fog on the coast was
so dense that it was impossible to
see farther than three to five yards.
"a loss of four Zeppelins is not a
matter of Indifference even for the
German air service, but the principal,
and at the same time satisfactory,
fact remains, however much we may
deplore the accident, that the de-
struction of the airships was not the
result of English counter-attacks. but
was solely owing to a concentration
of unfortunate circumstances.

is MADE PLEASAnT
FOR SERVICE MEN

Men of the service could hardly
have hoped for more generous enter
talnment on Thanksgiving than that
accorded them on the holiday in Pen
sacola, and their apprec nhon is evil
dent. For those who obtained lib
erty there were dances, and musical
and dramatic entertainments, in PEN
sacola, while those who were forced
TO remain at their posts of duty were
not neglected but enjoyed similar en-
tertaipments.
OF course the feature Of the day
Cor those who were off, was the great
football game between the Army and
Navy ut Maxent Park. Enlisted men
for the Aeronautic Station and Army
posts made up more than half the
crowd, and thoroughly enjoyed the
game. though men from the Aero
nautic Station did not as much as
the Amy men.
Peasons for this fact are found in
the result of the game 60 for the
Camp Sheridan contgent, but the
aviators expect to make it up in a
post-season game at Montgomery,
and insist that the result would have
been tie other way around if Pun
pelly and "Chocky" Williamson had
been in the lineup.
But opportunities for the Navy
1nen tn drown their sorrows were af-
forded by the Army and Navy Life
Activities Committee, the K. of c..
and the Patriotic League, the Aero
nautic Dancing Club, and private
parties, by inviting all of them to

AIR SUPREMACY AND TANKS.

AIR SUPREMACY AND TANKS.
Aside from the military Importance
of the English drive in the Cambria
sector and the psychological effect of
dispelling the depression caused by
the Russian and Italian disasters, it
is valuable in showing conclusively
that the Allies have obtained the
mastery of the air on the Western
front
Were this not the case. the sur
prise attack would have been inn
possible, and upon this element the
victory was largely dependant. There
| was no artillery preparation for the
movement, and consequently no mass
ing Of field pieces which could have
been detected by enemy observers.
!, But tanks were used in large num-
, bers. and it was obviously necessary
to mobolize them before the attack.
Had enemy scouts seen this concen~
tration, the most potent factor for
victory would have been lost. That
they did not see it proves that their
reconnaissance planes were ineffec-
tive, the logical result of aerial SUI
premacy of the Allies.
Since early in the war, strattgists
have been attempting to find some
means by which to restore the ele-
ment of surprise in modern warfare.
but have been baffled by the air
scoute, which betrayed every move
ment, and the trench warfare and
barbed wire entanglements which
prevented rapid advances, even when
aerial vigilence failed to reveal the
plan.
! With the drive at Cambria the
problem is solved. Superior airplane
forces eliminated the one, while the
British tanks, running rough-shod
over everything, eliminated the other.
Americas aerial fleet was always
conceded a wise move, but the Byng
victory reveals the true foresight
that planned it.

"FREEzE" Ar AIRPLANEs' APP.
PRoAcH.

All soldiers are now instructed
what to do when a hostile scouting
airplane is sighted by troops on the
march.
On the warning "Airplanel" every
man drops on his right knee, with
his head bent well over the muzzle
of his rifle, which is held in a sloping
position in front of the body. To
look up is fatal, for it creates sea
of white faces. All ranks then re-
main as motionless as they possibly
can until the airplane has passed
over them, says London Answers. In
fact, they may be said to Greece" as
wild animals freeze when seeking to
evade observation.
