"Whew!" whistled Earl. "She ought to be able to make time."
"She can," said the soldier confidently. "Just wait until young Dineau gets hold of her. He'll make her sail; he's a wonder, that boy. It's a shame he ever got out of the aviation corps."
"He was good all right, wasn't he?" demanded Leon.
"Good?" exclaimed the man. "I should say he was good. Why I'll bet that if he had stuck to the flying corps he'd have bagged a dozen Boche machines by this time."
"He's reckless though," said Leon.
"Not reckless, but daring," insisted the soldier. "He doesn't know fear."
"Here he comes now," observed Earl.
