Major J. E. M.

Major Pritchard @as the officer who made the trip over in the R-34.and who dropped from a parachute to Roosevelt Field to make sure that the landing arrangements were perfect before the R-#4 was brought down. He believes that the rigid dirigible is the best type of air machine for trangocean flights. BRITISH PRESS JUBILANT OVER SUCCESS OF R-34 Glad Dirigible Completed Flight Without Help of, the U.
