Elliott White Springs (July 31, 1896 - October 15, 1959), was a South Carolina businessman and an American flying ace of World War I, credited with shooting down 16 enemy aircraft. In 1927, Springs published War Birds: Diary of an unknown aviator, based on the diary of his friend, John McGavock Grider, and his own diaries and letters of the time. John McGavock Grider (May 28, 1893 - June 18, 1918) was a fighter pilot during World War I and one of the famous American war birds who trained in England. He is credited with downing four enemy aircraft This was at the beginning of American aviation when the United States had not yet organized their own air service and defense. When America entered the war in 1917, aviation only became officially established and used in war a year later in May 1918. The air service became the newest branch of the U.S. army and had few pilots that were trained to endure combat. An aviation bill was passed in July 1917 for $640 million however it would take time to build airfields and planes. At the end of the First World War, the commander of the American Expeditionary Force in Europe, General John J. Pershing named John McGavock Grider as one of his top one hundred heroes of the war. His diary is one of the first published accounts of a pilot in the beginning of American aviation. He was amongst several U.S. volunteers that served in the Royal Flying Corps during World War I. In regrouping the Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service it became the Royal Air Force on April 1, 1918. Ref NN 5.

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 484 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Examining the reality of First World War aviators, this volume features William Faulkner's astonishing first novel, Soldiers' Pay, alongside the diary of an unknown veteran who died in action. William Faulkner's Soldiers' Pay…was first published in 1926 and explores the life of a severely wounded aviator when he returns from war to his small hometown. The seminal novel presents the struggles of many soldiers following the First World War and gives insight into the men's physical and psychological trauma.Accompanying Faulkner's masterpiece is the diary of an American WWI aviator. The diary's author served alongside the aviator in battle and published the text in honour of his comrade. John MacGavock Grider is commonly thought to be the diarist, with his memoirs being edited and published in 1926 by his friend and fellow aviator, Elliot White Springs. Detailing his life in battle from 20th September 1917 to late August 1918, Grider describes his flying experience and provides glimpses into a soldier's off-duty life. This new edition of Soldiers' Pay and War Birds: Diary of an Unknown Aviator is complete with two introductory poems by Thomas Hardy and Wilfred Owen. A remarkable volume, not to be missed by those interested in the First World War and American history.
