CHIVALRY OF THE ARMY
BESTOWED ON »AIR FORCES
(By Associated Press)
•LONDON, Dec. 5.—“The chivalry of
the army” was the title bestowed up
on the British air forces by Premier
Lloyd George in a tribute he paid to
them in a recent speech in the House
of Commons. The premier was moving
a vote of thanks to the British armies
and navy. Of the aviation service
he said:
NN,The heavens are their battlefields,
they are the cavalry of the clouds.
High above the squalor and the i?iud,
so high in the firmament that they
are not visible from earth, they fight
out the eternal issues of right and
wrong. Their struggles there by day
and night are like a Miltonic conflict
between the winged hosts of light and
darkness.
“They fight the foe high up and
they fight him low down, they skim
like swallows along the ground, at
tacking armed men in their trenches.
They scatter infantry on the march
and destroy convoys. Every flight
is a romance, every record is an epic.
They are the knights of the war, with
out fear and without reproach. They
recall the old legend of chivalry, not
merely by the power of their individu
al exploits, but by the nobility of their
spirit, and among the multitude of
heroes we must continuously thank
the chivalry of the army.”
