THE HAWAIIAN FLIGHT SQUADRON by CHARLOTTE LOUISE BERTLESEN

First Line: ASLANT THE DIM PACIFIC'S DRIFTING BREEZE
Last Line: BY NONCHALANT KNIGHT-ERRANTS BLITHELY MANNED.
Subject(s): AIRSHIPS; AVIATION & AVIATORS; FLIGHT; HAWAII; MILITARY; AIRPLANES; AIR PILOTS; FLYING;
Aslant the dim Pacific's drifting breeze
They swung aloft. ... Her fog-swept waters spanned;
A gallant fleet of winged argosies,
By nonchalant knight-errants blithely manned.
