Wednesday 24 April 1918 – Shooting with Gun and Camera

A day of varied activity, and varying degrees of success.  First some aerial combat practice in a DH.6.  Secondly an outing in an RE8 to take photos and do a shoot – presumably an artillery shoot, as on 22 April – which this time was recorded as unsuccessful.
