The lesson has a application to the liquor prob- ;^®on*t undereBthnate "the enemy!** WlA these words as a keynote of his tAlk before tbe cadets of Southern ArlaUon school recently, LldhL Daniel Kennedy, a cradoate of the class of 42-C and a participant In approximate ly 60 missions over enemy territory, 6®^® ^today’s cadets a glimpse into their future as army pilots. VtelUng his primary Alma Mater, Lit. Kennedy related awe-inspiring ex periences of today’s aerial warfare and answered qoestions presented by the cadets. Lt. Kennedy was attached to a P-88 Lightning fighter squadron and saw action against the Germans and Italians in the Mediterranean area. He declared that aerial warfare very seldom presents indiridual dog fights so characteristic of the last war. Modem aimraft and modem technique perasit only fonnattoii tac tics, w^l planned and executed In precisioc. > “Life is cheap over there,** Lt Ken nedy said, commenting upon hls con tacts with the enemy, “and you must really hate the enemy to live.** The **Jerrie8’’ are. smart and use their years ot war experience to t^ best advantages. He said that they really know how to fight ^ ^ The most pleasant sight to % P-$8 fighter is to see one motor dead and the other carrying the plane safely home. That “other motor” sav^ his life in three occasions, he sal^. When asked If pilots are afraid in battle, Lt. Kennedy answered that everyone is scared, but he was quick to add that not one man in one hun dred is ever yellow. A pilot who shows a^streak of cowardice by breaking out of formation and thereby endangering the entire flight never lasts long in this war. Almost all casualties are caused by planes which have broken formation, either to save themselves 4|a because of ..other factors. The is practically foedproof and presents a very strong team in battle. ^ - The Germans fight a “vertical*’ war, ^krhereas the Allies use a. ‘borlsotar technique. Lt Kennedy described !he German methods as being very simple hut also very, effective. Their most efficient offensive tactic is to hide ^in the sun” at high altltndes,. dive upon their 'prey, and then gain altitade again. However, they seldom afbick at even odds but nsually attack when they have the distinct advantage. In describing Italian pilots, he said that they were always eager to tight but that they Just didn’t know how to fight. Lt Kennedy described one ini cident where an Italian pilot climbed to meet an entire formation of Ameri can planes. The Italian found him self in front of his prey. Instead of getting out of the way he took a 80- second burst of tire which riddled hls plane* He began to lose altitude and merely settled in front of a lower formation of Ligbtnihgs. That for mation riddled him again. He lost more altitude, was pulverised by more lean strategy formation flying formations from a lower group and he literally ranlahed Into the air. The English have better Individual istic pilots than the Americans, Lt. Kennedy thought, but the Americans present a better" team and work bet ter in groups than do the R. A. F. He holds the highest esteem for the R. A. F, and said that It has one of the Unest organisations in' the world. “The B^lisb really have guts,” he said. *n hls opinion the Havoc, A;29, is a remarkable ship, and the Junkers 88 Is the only enemy plane that can come anywhere near its performance. Seldom realised or comprehended by the layman is the difficulty pre sented in identifying aircraft. Lt. Kennedy said that a great per cent of aircraft casualties are caused by failure to identify other craft. His own ship has b^n fired upon by other Allied planee. Lt Kennedy concluded his talk by declaring that today’s cadets have every advantage conceivable to make the'best pilots in the world. He said that when he received his wings many plaims were yet'untried. Cadets to day will receive training in ships which have proven themselTW tiM best Children of Scotland gatheted TO tons of rose hips last year, and the syrup extracted was distributed among mothers and children during the win ter.
