AERIAL AMBULANCE
MAKES!F|RST RUN

Lake Charles, La. July i6.-An
aerial ambulance assigned to Gerst-
ner Field near here has made It's
first run in actual service and has
fulfilled the expectations of officers
who advocated its adoption.
A lieutenant at target practice at
the aerial gunnery school about 90
miles from the flying field recently.
descending at terrific speed from a
high altitude and firing his machine
gun at target placed on the sur
face of the lake, failed to flatten
out sufficiently when he completed
his dive and crashed into the water.
He was rescued Immediately but
while not seriously injured was bad
ly bruised and shaken up. necessitat-
ing few days confinement to quar-
tiers.
The round trip by automobile
from Gerstner Field to the gunnery
school consumes from an hour and
half to two hours over a rough
and roundabout road. Instead oi
telephoning for car the aerial am
bulance was ordered.
Forty-five minutes later It hat
made the 40-mile flight from Gerst
ner Field to the lake and return ant
the injured aviator was in his quar-
ters receiving medical attention.
The flying ambulance Is described
Jas a large biplane with the usua
seat for the pilot and an adjustable
or reclining chair for the patient
To distinguish It a large Red Gross
is painted on the wings.
