I fired at him down to 4.000 feet and left him, {because he seemed to be cut of con- trol. However, I watched him crash and burst into flames on the ground. “As I followed the E.

This belief is well expressed in two more documents copied from the files at Washington. The first tells with mili- tary bricfness why he was awarded the Bistinguished Service Cross. It reads “Kindley, Field E, first licutenant. 148th Aero Squadron. Air Service. Near Bourlon Wood.
