Twominutes after we left, the second plane, with Lingard and Shields, pilots,and Howard, observer, shoved off. They arrived on the scene while thesubmarine was still on the surface. The first bomb was then dropped,landing within forty feet of the submarine, but did not function. Afterfiring a few shots at the plane, it submerged, but came up shortly, andLingard dropped his second bomb. In the meantime Capt. Eaton andEnsign Brown arrived in two monoplanes and both dropped a bomb.Finally, my plane was fixed and we got there after the submarine had sub-merged a second time, but it was still visible, and we dropped a bomb,which fell about thirty feet from it. All the bombs failed to function owingto two reasons: too many safety devices, and too small a detonator andbooster charge. In all, five bombs were dropped, four of which would haveprobably totally disabled it. All the planes made the attack from a height ( 330 )</i><br><b>Text Appearing After Image:</b><br><i>THOMAS DURFEE of under four hundred feet. About a dozen shots were fired at the first twoplanes, several passing within a few feet of their target. On Oct. 4, 1918, four planes left Chatham at 6 a.m., en route forthe Philadelphia Navy Yard. The pilots were Ensign Durfee,Flight Commander, Ensigns Hudson, Shields, and Walker. At9.30 they reached Bay Shore, completing the first leg of the trip,168 miles. They left Bay Shore for Cape May at 12 m. arriving at4 p.m., 180 miles. Then after re-fuelling and a slight rest, they leftfor Philadelphia, arriving without mishap. This was set down as arecord distance for a single day, and especially remarkable as theplanes were being taken down for overhauling as unfit for furtherpatrol duty. Ensign Durfee holds the altitude record for H.S. 2with full fighting equipment. He was commissioned Lieut, (j.g),dating from April 1, 1919, and was placed on inactive duty at theNavy Yard, Boston, April 19, 1919. DUDLEY BOWLES MURPHY Ensign, U.S.N.R.F.
