German Comeback Falls Short in Armistice Tourney 

The 33rd Indy Squadron Armistice Day Fits Tournament was held in Lewisville, Indiana on November 13, 2021 with the following teams competing for the Victory Medal: 

Germans
Dory Oda                                   Fokker DVII 185 
Stephen Dale Skinner               Pfalz DrI 

Allies
Ethan Skinner                            Nieuport 28 
Rick Lacy                                   Morane Saulnier AI 
Stephen Skinner                        Sopwith Camel 110 hp 

Despite the fact that Dory's Fokker scored a light wound on Rick's Morane pilot on the opening turn, the Germans found themselves in serious trouble almost from the outset. Stephen's Camel hammered Stephen Dale's triplane for 11 hits, inflicting a rudder jam that forced the German outside the tourney box. It was ruled that according to squadron precedent, he would be allowed to rejoin the fight if he returned to the box immediately after fixing the rudder.

Armistice Day Tourney Set for November 13th 

The 33rd annual Indy Squadron Armistice Day Fits Tournament is set for 12 noon at 110 Market St, Union City. We expect a slightly smaller crowd, so it may be your best bet to win a championship in recent years. If possible, please bring $10 per person to cover the food and snacks that will be served throughout the day. 

Due to the discovery of the Becker medals, this year's Victory Medal will break from tradition and sport a gold and white ribbon. The medal dates to the 1950s and was originally won by Mr. Charles Becker in western Ohio. The squadron approved the temporary alteration due to the rarity and uniqueness of the Becker medals. The first of four Becker medals were awarded to the 2020 squadron champion. 

The Armistice Day Fits Tournament is Indy's most important event and the highest scoring eligible player will be named the squadron champion for 2021.
