A German pilot accidentally lands on Rick’s aerodrome, and there are only two ways he can play it. He can stick a gun in the idiot’s face and take him prisoner—earning a mention in dispatches for his trouble. Or, he can go hog-wild and pull the prank of a lifetime on good old Fritzie. The spanking-new Halberstadt two-seater the Hun is flying is too beautiful. With a little help from his friends, he’s dying to try it out. Zach Neal’s Morning Patrol is a tall tale of World War One aviation at a time when aerial warfare was a little kinder, a little gentler—a little more innocent perhaps.
