Biography:
World War I combat aviators were often measured by the number of enemy planes they shot down; each plane was assumed to be piloted by a single German officer. As reported by Hume, Sartoris shoots down three German aviators in his effort to avenge his brother's death (414). Monaghan asserts that he is responsible for the death of "thirteen Huns" - a derogatory term for German combatants during the War (416).
