Ach:'' Gold-beater skin hoarding is a 'Firing' offense!" DR. Hunt is inaccurate however that 1917 was the year of Zeppelin downing enlightenment. Lt Warneford downed his Zeppelin over Ghent in 1915 and Lt Leefe-Robinson downed his over London in 1916; both Indian born officers received the Victoria Cross to great media acclaim. The former, in the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton, and the second, in the Ashcroft VC Collection, now at the Imperial War Museum. The poor Huns were forced to rely on helium>> as <<hydrogen (OOPS) was unobtainable(as with the later Hindenburg) and when afflicted with Vickers or Lewis .303 tracer ammo, tended to go up like a 'ronson', descending in a great fireball to bells ringing, as in the case of Leefe-Robinson over London.
