Eddie Rickenbacker: March 9, 1918

Was called upon to test several of the planes which were becoming very nose heavy due to the great amount of acrobacy performed by pilots here. Seth Low finally returned being the last to arrive of new planes. Capt. [James Ely] Miller flew over to the other camp today with intention of going over the lines in a SPAD. Hope he returns OK. There was a German photo plane over camp about 1230. No doubt we shall be bombed soon. Understand Paris was badly bombed last night. If true, it was the first time without moon light. Had several letters from home today. Naturally, am very happy.
