Tt was his scheme to uso the Independent. Air Force for bombing industrial plants {in the Rurh Valley and do retaliatory. bombing over Berlin for the bombing, of London.
Whilst the squadron very success fully blotted out most of the indus trial plants in the Ruhr they never had the chance to bomb Berlin as on the day designated to continue this, duty, August 4, 1918, Peace Feelers came out of Germany which dually culminated in the signing of the Armist ice in November 1918, The news flashed around the R.F.C. Squadrons: at that ime was to the effect that the threat to make retaliatory - bomb: ing on German cities caused the Huns to pack up.
