WTWHTAS

Chap 14, 2.a
Rickenbacker, Col. Adamson, and Bartek were picked up by Lieut. William F. Eadie whose Kingfisher squadron located them. Lieut. Eadie is a real flyer and a real man. Here is how he rescued those three.


The scout planes' efforts to guide surface craft to the Rickenbacker raft were hampered by rain squalls. It was growing dark. There was danger the raft might be lost again during the night and that someone aboard it might die unless given immediate attention.
