"On the good weather days we fly or are on the waiting list of a new machine. When we are on the wait- ing list we practice with a machine gun or shoot traps with a shot gun. On bad weather days we read, write, clean up, etc. Evenings find us either at the officers' rest room, Y. M. C. A., or the nearby town. Flying officers have very little work to do; eats fine, and only 40 francs a week. So you see you don't want to waste any sym- pathy on me for I am the last person to deserve such. * * * My training gets more interesting as I advance. Wre are doing a good deal of shoot- ing and flying. These little 2x4 planes they use over here and I get along firie; also the shooting is improving 'pretty good.' I have been flying a plane that looks like a shingle with an engine on it. (Note—Probably a Nieuport). j "One great sport I have been try- ' ing out lately is 'tree jumping.' You ' get off the ground aboufc 25 to 50 feet and ride around the country diving at different objects. My in- structor is the best one at that. The other day he dove on a flock of sheep and went down low enough to place his wheels on the back of one sheep, and when we looked around the sheep was turning over and over. He has been at the front and got one man by shooting him with a rifle. His name is --------- and he lived in the southern part of the United States before the war."
