Summary "Battling the Clouds: or, For a Comrade's Honor" by Frank Cobb is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the vibrant world of aviation at Fort Sill and follows two young boys, Bill and Frank, as they navigate their way through childhood adventures in a military environment. The themes of friendship, bravery, and the bond between family members are likely to surface as the boys encounter various challenges associated with growing up in an exciting yet demanding atmosphere. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to the boys at an aviation field during a hot summer day. They engage in playful banter while observing the excitement of the aviation world around them, notably a captive tarantula that adds a whimsical touch to the scene. Bill is characterized as responsible, influenced by his mother's health, while Frank, his cousin, has aspirations of becoming a pilot under the wing of military life. The opening sets the tone for the adventures to come as Frank and Bill are immersed in a unique blend of youthful innocence and the dramatic backdrop of military aviation, which likely shapes their experiences and aspirations.
