Eddie V. Rickenbacker WWI Diary
Weather was bad this morning; however, after lunch Capt. [Fauntleroy] and Lt. DeWitt went out together. Lt. Cook, Major Kirby went out together after balloons. Lt. Cook landed just west of Verdun with his propeller shot off. Major Kirby landed at Clermont out of gas. Capt. [Fauntleroy] and Lt. DeWitt have failed to return; however, am expecting them to phone any moment. Was notified that a decoration would take place tomorrow on our field. Gen. Foch has given Germany until 11 o’clock Monday morning to accept our Armistice terms.
