German Brutality Reported Across Front and Brave Belgian Flight
A leaked report notes German troops forbidding recovery of enemy dead or wounded except behind their lines and threatening to fire on Red Cross stretcher parties. The action echoes recent events near Villers Bretonneux. Belgian aviator Lieut Coppens earns praise for a daring low flight, shooting down three German observation balloons in the Comines area. He survives heavy machine gun and anti aircraft fire with his aircraft riddled but intact. An allied photograph captures a German he hid in a camouflaged dugout surrendering after a portrait session.
