Eddie V. Rickenbacker WWI Diary
July 26, 1918-The news from home certainly has been encouraging. My condition is about the same. Story of a Negro in the front lines was ask by his commander if they understood all the trench language. He said yes so Capt. ask him what 'over the top' meant. He stated 'nearer Jesus' and so it is with aviators we are nearer Heaven.
