Colonel Raynal Cawthorne Bolling '00, of New York, former Chief of the Air Service, who has previously been reported missing was killed in France last March; it was learned yesterday. While passing in an automobile along the Amiens-St. Quentin road near Estrees he was surprised by a party of Germans, and shot down after a short one-sided fight.
At the outbreak of hostilities in 1917, Colonel Bolling formed the First Reserve Aero Squadron and was appointed a major. Previous to the departure of the squadron overseas he was sent on a special mission to Italy, France and England. Upon the completion of this work he was promoted to the rank of Colonel and made Chief of the Air Service.
