Lieutenant Rath Receives Distinguished Service Cross
Lieut. Howard G. Rath, observer with the 96th aero squadron and brother of J. W. Rath of this city, won the Distinguished Service Cross for extraordinary heroism. Attacked by 15 enemy planes while leading a flight, Rath bombed his objective under odds and, with his pilot, returned to base with valuable information. Earlier, engine trouble nearly forced a bombardment of a German town, but the crew reached their lines. The pilot in the cited mission was killed days later. Rath is now group observation officer.
