Summary "Air Service Boys over the Atlantic; Or, The Longest Flight on Record" by Charles Amory Beach is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century, around the time of World War I. The plot centers around two brave young aviators, Tom Raymond and Jack Parmly, who embark on daring airborne missions against enemy forces while also navigating personal challenges back home. As they engage in thrilling dogfights and undertake rescue missions, the narrative explores themes of friendship, courage, and the pursuit of glory amid the backdrop of wartime aviation. The opening of this tale introduces us to Tom and Jack as they pilot their battle-plane in a high-stakes confrontation with German forces. They witness a fallen American bomber and rush to its pilot's aid, showcasing their bravery and camaraderie. During this rescue, they learn about the ongoing battles and the harsh realities of war. The narrative sets the stage for their adventures, as they anticipate returning home and receiving promotions for their heroics, while also hinting at personal conflicts that may affect their futures. As the opening portion unfolds, it becomes clear that their journey is as much about fighting the enemy in the skies as it is about fighting the challenges they face in their personal lives.
