SINKING OF VESSEL CARFULLY PLANNED Air Attack on Frankfurt, Former| Geman Ship Today On Board U. S. S. North Dakota, Off Virginia Capes, July 18.—(By the Associated Press)—The navy and army airmen joined forces today for the bombing of the former German erusier Frankfurt, at anchor 75 miles southeast of Cape Charles lightship, where six once enemy men of war sirady have been sent down by bombs or shell fire. The Frankfurt was the largest tar- get at which the aviators had launch- ed “live bombs” since the beginning of the joint tests here nearly a month ago. Thirty two airships had been as- signed for today's action, which was divided into two phases. Twelve naval seaplanes of the F-5-L type carrying a total of 30 205 pound bombs nd fire army Martin bombers carrying a total of 30 300 pound bombs were to participate in the first series of attacks. Four seaplanes of the trans-Atlantic NC type, five navy Mar- tin bombers and six army Martin ‘bombers and six army Martin bombers were to take part in the second series. They were to launch a total of 48 bombs, divided 15 to five hundrd and 20 pounds each to the five navy Martins, eight of five hundred and twenty pounds each for the NC's and six hundred pounds each for the army Martins. Should the Frankfurt be afloat after the launching of the 108 bombs allot- ed to the planes, she was to be shelled by the 25th destroyer division of the Atlantic fleet. The destrovers would uee ten rounds of ammunition for each gun brought to bear on the target and open fire at a range of five thousand yards. If this attack failed, a wreck- ing party from the North Dakota would finish up the job . the use of Weapth charges placed on board.
