It was the proud privilege of both the Prince brothers to give their
active services to France on the battle fronts. Having passed their
boyhood and early youth together, performing the same tasks and
enjoying the same recreations, Frederick and Norman developed
similar ambitions and aptitudes, particularly in their more strenuous
activities. Moreover, they had obtained in part their early education in
France, and the call to the French colors at the outbreak of the war
appealed almost as strongly to them as to the patriotic Frenchmen.
Norman’s early experience as an aviator at home and abroad gave
him a temporary advantage over Frederick in that he already had the
preliminary training for service in the aviation corps in which both
desired to enlist. He was consequently first of the two to realize his
heart’s desire and to take the oath of allegiance to France and her
cause. It was with pardonable hesitation that permission was
subsequently given by his parents to their only other son to join
Norman in the perilous aviation service but it was freely given, with
an appeal for God’s blessing, and Frederick sailed for France with
Norman on the latter’s return from his Christmas furlough at home in
1915. He underwent the rigorous training at the Pau aviation school
and began his active service at the front in the late summer, flying at
first with the intrepid Captain Guynemer, at the latter’s invitation, and
subsequently joining the Lafayette Squadron on the western front.
He won the high esteem of his comrades for his courage and manly
bearing, performing his duty with joyous enthusiasm and taking
active part in twenty-two aerial engagements during the ensuing five
months. When Norman fell at Luxeuil, it was a trying moment to
Frederick, who had lost his only brother and the companion of his
lifetime, but he promptly offered his services to France in his
brother’s place and he fought with the Lafayette Escadrille until he
came home on a short furlough. He subsequently returned to France
to rejoin his Squadron with courage undaunted, and with unflagging
faith in the ultimate triumph of the cause he loved and for which he
was proud to be actively enlisted.
