November 23, 2016 by Sarah McLennan

Mr Henry, Intell. Officer of 49th, visits me & we have an old time chat. thinks of joining RFC. We correct crater plan.


*RFC – Royal Flying Corps the military organization in charge of aircraft which would become the Royal Air Force in 1918. The RFC was in charge of aerial reconnaissance, artillery support and later aerial combat and strategic bombing. The Canadian Branch of the RFC was established in 1917 to train aircrew in Canada; this would later become the RCAF.
