WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN
FRAN E. September IL. Amaz-
ing feats by British airman during the
recent fighting may now be mentioned.
After driving down in flames one OF
two enemy two seaters, a British
scout had engine failure. which com.
PEELED him to spin down. AS the ma
chine touched the ground, q German
fred his pistol at the pilot from fif-
ten yards, puncturing the gasoline
tank. At that moment the engine
picked up sufficiently to carry the
pilot to the rear OF the British lies,
where he was forced to come down
again. Being under a heavy fire. he
removed the gunlocks and sights and
all his instruments before abandoning
his machine, which could not be
saved.
A pilot and observer. returning In
their machine from a bombing raid,
fell behind their formation because
Of engine trouble and were attacked
by Fokkers. The elevator controls
were Immediately shot away and the
observer was badly wounded. But he
continued to fight and shot down one
Fokker in flames and saw another
CRASH out or control.
BY this time all the gasoline tanks
had been shot through and the en-
hit in several places. All the in
struments on the dashboard were
smashed by enemy bullets. Both rear
guns were damned and the observer
was bleeding badly. The pilot sue
ceedd in getting his machine into a
dive and went through a cloud and
reached the British lines. The gallant
observer was found to have been
wounded ten times during the fighting
Attacked by a squadron OF enemy
airplanes a lone British scout spun
downward. but on the way saw that
only one Of the enemy was following
him. So he came SUDDENLY out of the
spin just above a grove Of trees and
caught the enemy machine crossing
in front OF him and shot 1t to the earth
where It burst into flames.

There are many stories, too, OF how
British airmep swooped back and
forth over the German batteries play
ing their guns on the enemy until
these guns were completely silenced.
One report winds up by saying that
a scout machine later crossed bat
terry position several times, but was
not fired on, all the gunners apparent
ly having been killed.
Such tactics as these aided material
~ in making the recent British vic
tories possible. One British scout
sailed over an enemy sausage, dived
and finished of two German sentry
planes. then fired on the sausage,
which was being hauled down and
finally dropped two bombs squarely
on the winch used in raising and low
ering the balloon.
There were many instances where
the observer crawled out on the wings
and stopped bullet holes in the gas
