Summary "One Who Served" by Dinsmore Ely is an autobiographical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences of Dinsmore Ely, a young American aviator who volunteered to serve during World War I. Through his letters home, Ely shares his journey from arriving in France to training as a pilot, highlighting his adventures, reflections on life, and the complexities of war. At the start of the narrative, Ely expresses his enthusiasm and excitement about sailing to France, capturing the vibrant atmosphere of his departure and the camaraderie among men on the ship. As he recounts his early days in France, he reflects on his training in aviation and the friendships he forms along the way. The opening portion establishes Ely's sense of purpose and determination to serve his country, while also offering glimpses of the profound experiences that will shape his identity as a soldier and human being throughout the war. Ely's narrative is marked by youthful optimism, curiosity about the world, and an awareness of the sacrifices that come with devotion to duty. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
