In what may have been their first glimpse of an aeroplane, Bedouins engaged in a jihad against the Turks, look from their tent at an R.E.8 sent by their British allies. In "Holy Lands," renowned aviation artist, Jim Dietz illustrates a passive introduction to aviation. Later, the value of air power would be demonstrated to the Arab tribesmen in a more aggressive manner as large numbers of their enemy fell to tactical bombing and ground strafing operations in the final British-Arab drive on Damascus.
