Re: On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month

My grandfather, Lt. D.E. White, flew the last combat mission of WWI. He bombed a German airdrome the night of Nov. 10, 1918. He flew a Handley-Page O-100 two -engine bomber. He, and the other American pilots were written up in a book "The Annals of 100 Squadron" written by Major C. Gordon Burge in 1919. He's listed on page 195. The true story of the flying in that war makes movies like "Flyboys" look like Tinker Bell's birthday party.
