  20. ↑ "Elm Tree in Arboretum Recalls the Deeds of First AEF Air Bombers --First Planes Repaired with Parts of Discarded Farm Machines. -- 6 men,survivors of the 96th aero squadron, A E. F. first American bombingsquadron to deify gas beyond the enemy lines during the World war,planted and American elm tree Friday afternoon in the Dawes Arboretum tothe memory of the deeds of this outfit and to those intrepid members ofthe squadron who flew away into the East and never returned.
    While the tree planting was one of the objectives of the meeting, thegroup took advantage of the first meeting of the survivors since of theend of the wore 17 years ago to form a permanent organization and towrite a record of the outfit's tragic and thrilling experience in whatwas then a new branch of modern warfare. Belmont Beverly, Newburgh, NewYork, only member of the original squadron personnel, who was stillflying with the outfit when the armistice was signed, read a detailedhistory of the squadron, compiled from records of the war department andfrom personal recollections of survivors. The reading of the historyprecipitated a discussion which developed that the memories of some werefaulty, that even the war department official records were notnecessarily complete and that further contributions could and would bemade to round out the romantic story of the pioneer American offensiveair group.
    The disputed facts given in Beverly's history were that the squadron'sfirst flight behind enemy lines was made in old outmoded French trainingships, little better than crates of scrap, which had been a repaired andput into condition to get into the air by the ingenuity of the Yankeemechanics, who raided the barnyards in the vicinity of their air domefor parts from discarded farm machinery for their planes.
    Parts of an old harvester were used for tale posts, wagon tires were cutout to use as detailed skins, pieces of an old Oxnard town were used toreinforce the wings bars, wire which once had served as telephone lineswere used for the struts. Despite these improvided planes, the squadronattempted its first bombing flight. This first flight and subsequentforays into enemy territory during the first month were more or lesssuccessful, as enemy records and postwar investigations disclosed.
    The following condensed story of the squadron was contributed by Lieut.Arthur H. Alexander, one of those present yesterday:
    The 96th had one of the most unique and checkered history of anyAmerican squadron at the front. The enlisted personnel commanded byCapt. George C. Thomas, was one of the first to get to France; it wastrained in French factories and air dome's and when the American bombingschool was started at Clermont-Ferrand, in January, 1918, it wasdetailed there and there is history really begins_
    the 6 men participating in the tree planting and dinner were_ MajorDavid H. Young, Columbus."
