Colonel R. C. Boiling is reported as captured or missing in yesterday's casualty list. Eight other officers are named. Captain Hyman Green and Lieutenant John Alexander Currin were severely wounded, and Captain Wakeman G. Gribbel and Lieuten ants Arthur S. Bugbee, George W. Donnell, Homan Gray, Thomas F. Hale and Reuben A. Moser were slightly wounded. The Colonel R. C. Boiling named !in the casualty list as captured or i missing was identified by War De partment officials as R. C. Boiling, of New York, assistant general coun sel of the United States Steel Cor poration, who was commissioned in the after war was de clared. Colonel Boiling had been interest ed in aviation for several years, and offered his services to the govern ment in that branch of the Army long before the United States enter ed the war. He was commissioned a major in the reserve corps and was given charge of the organiza tion of a squadron from New York. I/earnlng the government was hav ing difficulty In obtaining adequate space for a training field, lajor Boiling leased one in his own name, paying over a substantial sum. About a year ago he was ordered to France as the representative there of the aircraft production board. General Pershing later as signed him to other duties, however, and these must have taken him to the front. It was thought most probable at the War Department Colonel Boiling was either shot down or forced to descend in enemy ter ritory while engaged in a flight.
