American Headquarters in France,
Sept. 27-German aviators have bonn
barded the barracks of American
army engineers, but none OF the men
received a scratch.
The attack was made at night and
the men were suddenly aroused by the
bursting of explosives. They hurried
into the bombproof dugouts and there
calmly waited until the raiders made
off.
Flying low altitude the hostile Wis.
itors opened up with their machine
guns and riddled the barracks build
ings
The Americans took the attack calm
ly and showed not trace of nervous
ness.
How the German airmen were able
to locate the American barracks in the
darkness Is q mystery.
The location of the cantonment has
not been revealed by the military au.
thorities nor has It become known how
close they are to the front.
The chief feature of the attack was
the calmness of the men. Some even
joked while the German machine guns
were rafting high above the ground.
All had the utmost presence Of mind
and some of the men, as they dashed
from their cots to the bomhproof
picked up decks Of cards with which
to while away the time at the good
old American game of poker.
When the barracks were established
the officers seeing the possibility OF an
air raid had deep dugouts constructed
and equipped for just such an emer-
gency.
German aviators have been scouting
for some time in an evident search
for American troops and were evident
ly under order to do their utmost to
ferret out their locations
