Description
(1892-1971) American pilot who flew with the Royal Air Force during World War I, and with the USAAF in World War II. War-date typed D.S. ‘O. J. Rose, Lt.’ 1p. oblong 8vo., [n.p. but France, n.d.], a portion of a combat report signed at conclusion. In part: ‘…I started with 18.00 Offensive Patrol. During an engagement I got separated from the Patrol and seeing an E.A. two-seater near Sailly-de-la-Lys I attacked him at 2,500 ft. I got on his tail and closed up just under his tail and fired four bursts at him…He dived about 2,000 ft. and flattened out. The Observer started firing at me without any effect. I dived on his tail giving him a good burst of fire. He then spun to the ground and crashed…’. Very good.
