ss. He has also been recommendedfor the Distinguished Service Medal. (Signed, Captain W. J. Schauffler, Jr.,A.S., U.S.A., 3d Corps, Commanding Observation Group, Nov. 30, 1918.) As one of the oldest and most experienced pilots of this command,Lieut. Kinsley has, by his coolness and skill as a pilot on active fronts, beena source of great inspiration to pilots and observers joining the Squadron,and has thus contributed, in an unusual degree, to the esprit which hasmade possible the Squadrons successful participation in the St.-Mihiel andVerdun offensives. He has, on many occasions, demonstrated his abilityboth in aerial combat and as an observation pilot, and after a particularlydangerous and brilliant mission he was recommended for and is shortly toreceive the Distinguished Service Cross. Because of the unusual consist-ency of his work he has also been recommended for the DistinguishedService Medal. (Signed, Norris Pierson. 1st Lieut., A.S., U.S.A., Command-ing 90th Squadron.) ( 186 )
