oer the enemy territory.
"We had in our outfit during the
two years eight planes to service.
Five of them were lost through
enemy action two crashed in train

onlv came hack to this country,
j- Hie lone survivor. This plane
had completed 102 missions, and
l lin o different crews served on
tins one ship." snid C'pl. Plott.
It was mighty hard to wait on
the planes coming hack. It would
take them from 8 to 12 hours to
complete a mission and if they had
not come back in one hour after
the latter number we knew some
thing had happened." he explained.
"A plane was supposed to be
leads and tit for combat duty in
1!! hours after she had come in.
Sometimes it would take longer,
all according to the battle damage
they had suffered." he said.
"Sometimes some of our men
who wen- shot down escaped the
Germans and made their way back
to England with the aid of the
ondei ground agents, but they
never told anyone how they did it.
That was a secret they dared not
loll." he pointed out.

We're very proud of what we've got and
you'll see why with your first tankftil of the
new Esso gasoline.
At regular price it will give you more than
you expect of the things you want and need
in your car today.
Its performance will give you a
real thrill. Your engine starts fast
on new Esso, then warms up
swiftly to smooth, full power.
When you step on the throttle
you redly pick up in a hurry. And its new
anti-knock quality is high. And you get some
thing else found in no othr gasoline at any
nrice except Esso Extra. You get the ex
clusive engine protection of patented Esso
Solvent Oil that works constantly to help
keep your engine clean and efficient, to
help save wear and keep repair costs down.
This is important in cars as old as most in
use today.
If you want extra power and performance,
