From which aircraft it was derived, I'd venture a guess that for training. I think it had rather little time to do any, before they came stomping in.

East of the stompers.

The aeroplane is Czech, and that was about who went stomping in 1938.

Found the name on the internet and wrapped a quote box around it. If I was wrong then I could blame someone else.
