FOOD BY AIR
SUPPLY TO ISOLATED TROOPS IN BRITAIN. DURING HEAVY SNOWS LAST MONTH. By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. LONDON, February 13. The Royal Air Force played a great part in feeding isolated troops during the heavy snows last month. In one district five separate searchlight posts owe their rations to a pilot who took up his machine loaded with food despite the difficult flying weather. Food containers were dropped, in each case landing less than 200 yards away from the posts.
