On 30 July 1918 Group Captain Ira 'Taffy' Jones, flying SE5A D6895 with No. 74 Squadron, fought a German Rumpler aircraft. During the engagement, this wing strut from his aircraft was damaged by gunfire (the bullet damage can be seen). After despatching the Rumpler, Jones went on to shoot down a second German aircraft before landing, when his aircraft collapsed.
