Karls Diary

We took off at 9.00 in the morning,Oberleutnant Viktor Aeckerle and i. The weather was beautiful as it should be.

Our task was to photograph the trenches  in St. Mihiel.

Although I had only flown in Taube before,

Aviatik was easy to learn.

The biggest drawback was the lack of front visibility,because the observer sit there.We have not an armament because a camera was heavy that load would to be too heavy.
