Lieutenant Brayton Nichols '15 of the 166th aero squadron of the American Expeditionary Force has been reported killed in an aeroplane accident in Germany. According to news recently received by his father, Dr. Charles L. Nichols M.D. '75, of Worcester, it is believed that his death came as the result of a severe fall taken near Wittlich.
Nichols was 26 years old and had spent some time with Battery A of the 101st Field Artillery on the Mexican Border. At the entrance of the United States into the war, he went to Plattsburg, and was later sent to Ellington Field, where he received his commission. Last July, Nichols was sent overseas with the 166th Aero squadron.
