ARMY RECRUITS
TRAVEL BY PLANE
Were Transported From Montgomery
Ala to Fort 5snnlnUs, Ca
In Six Appliance

Fors Benning has discovered q new
Way of transporting its recruits. A
few days ago, six recruits for the In
fantry school, awaiting motor trans
portation at Montgomery air intermes
date depot, Montgomery. Ala. grew
impatient and desiring to get to. Fort
Benning as soon as possible, requested
permission to try the air. route. s
This permission was easily obtained
as six afrplanes were about to leave
the Montgomery air station to show
the "doughboys" how It Is done in the
course of some demonstrations at the
infantry school.
The following are the names Of the
men who took the ride: James l. Hall,
Carlton M. Cook. David Jorn, Ernest
b. Criswell Walter b. West
None OF these men had ever been in
an airplane before but were very well
pleased with their experiences.
Private West volunteered to describe
the trip:
1--WE left Montgomery air mtermedi-
ate depot at $3.50 in the morning and
rose to 1000 feet which
height we maintained. The sky was
overcast 80 that we could not see the
earth very clearly. especially since we
flew among the clouds most of the
way. However, we made out many
objects and features Of the landscape
In spite OF the cloudiness and the rate
of speed at which we were going-110
miles per hour. The rivers and streams
seemed to stand out more clearly than
anything else, though even the Chat
tahoochee river looked like a small
brook.
I'VE reached the landing feld at
Fort Benning about e:16 a. m. where
the pilot, 1st Lieutenant Moran made
a perfect landing"
These men all enlisted at Fort Bar =
ranoas, Fla. and were sent by rail to
Montgomery air depot to await motor
transportation to Fort Benning,
1t is contemplated that recruits will
be transported In this manner when
ever possible.
There are still some vacancies in
infantry and other branches at the
infantry school. For further tnfor-
