Congrats to all involved on another stunning issue. My favorite article is the one on observer Valentine Burger, with lots of rare photos of the big Caudron R.11s in unusual markings. The wonderful Mike O'Neal cover painting depicting Burger's Caudron in action is breathtaking - I thought for a second I was looking at a previously unknown Henri Farre painting.

The article by Jumpinjan on the Dawn Patrol Rendezvous is also great, with photos of Mike, Taz, Russ Smith and Fred Murrin. The piece by James A Pratt III on B-Boats vs. L-Planes in the Adriatic spotlights a little-known aspect of the war in the air.
