I've had a busy week at work, so limited time to fly, but this weekend i had some spare time. I've caught up to today's date, somewhat aided by 3 days of rain and no flying. Old Alois is still alive, still flying 2 seaters, but has transferred to a unit flying Roland Waalfisch.





BTW, love the medals! Gorgeous!

The torn line wavers, breaks, and falls. 'Get up, come on!' the captain calls 'Get up, the Welsh, and on we go!' (Christ, that my lads should fail me so!) A dying boy grinned up and said: 'The whole damned company, sir; it's dead.' 'Come on! Cowards!' bawled the captain, then Fell killed, among his writhing men.
