NOVEMBER 5, 1914

As the weather is very poor for flights in mid-day, we do most of our

flying right after sunrise, about 7:30. Things began to liven up at

different points to-day. Our friend, the enemy, had to be taken down a

peg, again. Shortly after 7:30 we started. Everything went well, so

that we were back in an hour. Then we payed another visit to our

artillery. We now fly for four of our batteries, and they only fire

when we give them the range. Whenever they have a target, it is

destroyed at the first opportunity. So we made two more flights

to-day, therefore, a total of three, and put four enemy batteries out

of action. We are doing things wholesale now.
