Excerpt from Go, Get 'Em!: The True Adventures of an American Aviator of the Lafayette Flying Corps Who Was the Only Yankee Flyer Fighting Over General Pershing's Boys of the Rainbow Division in Lorraine, When They First Went "Over the Top"

Before the little stage in front Of one I saw gathered a thronging crowd that, from a distance, gave the impression of many drones clustered about the Open ing Of a hive.
