In the Air
AN AIRMAN’S EXPLOITS. 01/fMD PeKSS AaBOOIATION. (Received 9.45 a.m.) London, June 10. |. The Telegraf .states that an Allies’ biplane flew over Brussels on Sunday night making for the airship shed at Helmet. From all directions heavy artillery fire opened, hut the aviator was not hit. Three bombs dropped at Etterbek failed to hit the airship shed there. Ihe aviator then returned to Helmet and amid renewed gunfire dropped three or four bombs on the airshed, limit flames arose, and it has since been ascertained that a Parseval was destroyed. The same airman afterwards dropped bombs on a large stable at Mods, containing horses. It is believed the Telegraaf story is another version of the Wilson— Mills raid.
