I learned much about WWI aviation from this diary. Life in a squadron told from a flier's daily experiences differs from other accounts I've read. Especially gripping was the evident decline in the author's psyche and strain on his nervous system as the war progressed.

More about partying in London than flying. Author was KIA in 1918.
