Show Dive Bombing First Used By U.S. Marines The employment of dive bombers or stukas, which has proved sc effective in destroying the morale of the enemy in the present wax, was first tried in this country at Kelly Field, Texas,' shortly after the World War. After experimenting experimen-ting it was decided that air strafing straf-ing exposed the planes to too much fire from ground troops, so the idea was discarded. Lateri however, when bandits threatened the peace of Nicaragua in Panama, U. S. Marine pilots, based at San Diego, California, were sent down to assist in quelling quel-ling the disorder there. They brought into use the dive bombing methods, results of which attracted attract-ed military authorities everywhere. Marines are required to fly in all sorts of emergency.
