SOLDIERS' DASH INTO FLAMES.
Three soldiers gallantly pulled a dying pilot from a burning sero- plane which crashed in Powell's Orchard, Feltham, Middlesex.
De-
The pilot, Mr. George Edward Watts, of St. Maur, Totnes. von, died in the Hounslow Cottage Hospital a little luter.
The soldiers who pulled hion from the flames were Sergt. Hal- low, Driver J. Hillyer and Mess- waiter G, Jones, all of the R.A.S.C. depot at Feltham,
Mr. Watts only secured his pilot's license a few days pre- viously; and he hired the machine from the National Flying Ser- vices at Hanworth for a practice light. He is believed to have
been returning to Nigeria shortly
after spending his leave in Eng- land.
Red Hot Framework.
One of the soldiers said: "We could see the pilot pinned under the framework, in flames from head to foot. He cried "Pull me out, pull me out."
"We tried to pull him clear, but were unable to do so. The frame.
mrk was red hot. After two or three attempts, we managed to lift the tail of the machine and push it aside. Then, with a civilian who reached the scene, we made a quick dash together, and were able Lo lift him to a distance."
