Captain Richard Duncan served initially as a lieutenant with the 1st Canadian Mounted Rifles in the Ypres Salient during World War I before transferring to the School of Aeronautics where he became a Flying Officer with No. 5 Corps Squadron. Unlike a fighter pilot who flew at high altitudes to maintain supremacy of the air, his duty as a corps squadron pilot was the deadliest and most versatile, being the eyes and ears of the Army Corps as artillery observer, strafing enemy trenches, providing photography of the German front line, dropping spies behind German lines, and maintaining contact during battle between the H.Q. and the troops on the ground.
Few ever returned from the war. Duncan was one of the few. His memoir is original and complete, including photographs of him and the No. 5 Corps Squadron. The book has 84 photos and 86 pages.
