Poland, O.C. and Administrative Officer respectively of No. 15 Squadron, who will be our neighbours on this ‘drome in a few weeks time. Their visit was not official but merely to say "how-do" and they left after only a short stay for AMRIYAH where their squadron is at present stationed.Lt. Col. Pretorius took off in the late afternoon for CAIRO to obtain permission to fly a Maryland Aircraft to the Union.
