One dropped a bomb, intended for the railway station a little further on.
By that we knew it was German, but we had little time to think.
The other aeroplane rushed onwards; firing was heard, and down came the German, followed by the Frenchman.
They alighted almost side by side.
We could see quite plainly men getting out and rushing towards each other.
A few minutes later some peasants came rushing to tell us that the two Germans from the Taube both lay dead on the edge of that sandy field to westward.
Then our train went on.
