The first genuine, actual fiying squadron in the # sippl. People who remember the Spanish- American war will recall a “flying squadron” under command of Admiral Schley which used to get into print quite frequently. That squadron was composed of two fast, light protected cruisers, the Minneapolis and Colum- bla; the finest armored cruiser at that time in existence, the Brooklyn, and the two old slow heavy battleships, the | Texas and Massachusetts, one of which has been resting on the mud at the bottom of Chesapeake bay, and the other has even longer been retired from the first line of battle. That squadron “flew” over the water at ‘about ten knots—if it was lucky. | The new flying squadron 1s quite dif- ferent. Instead of big ships we have nearly a dozen of little, torpedo-like flying boats which dart over the sur- face of the water or rise to speed through. the upper air on their snowy planes with equal grace and precisioh. Instead of .the thousands of officers and men*that manned the old “flying, squadron” the néw is manned only by some thirty odd .alert, clean Nmbed young ‘men, some of them in the uni- form of officers, some enlisted men, but all bearing that something of keen- ness, of quiet, poised alertness, that already distinctly stamps the man of the air. # In Tripoli the Italians used aero- planes, one or two, flying singly at random above the Turkish forces, oc- casionally, as opportunity served, dropping a casual bomb or so. In the Balkan war the allies employed some three or four aeroplanes, but again singly and always and only for scout- ing purposes, with the single exception of the few attempts at bomb dropping . at the siege of Adrianople. But for over a year the navy fying squadron has been drilling, first at Guantanamo, later at Pensacola, prac- tising flying in squadron formatiom through the upper alr. They have learned to maneuver in the sky above a hostlle fleet or fort with the same precision as a squadron of battleships on the surface of the sea and in pre- cisely the same manner to wheel and turn at the will of a single directing mind in the flaghoat by signals trans- mitted from boat to boat by tiny strings of flags. They have maneuvered in squadrons of four and six. have fired bombs, while in formation, in succession, in volleys or at will, and they have scored hits by all three methods. And every one of them on the way to Vera Cruz | was full of all the enthusiasm of the ploneer, of the man who was going to have the chance to give before the world the first actual service test of a new idea. It was all to learn, and ev- ery man was eager to try it. WALTON WILLIAMS. | ger and replied, “He is the fightihgest | fighters.
