KenV, that was Highball. Never saw active service in the Pacific.
The Highball incident
No, I'm not talking about Highball. I'm talking about skip bombing against shipping, not dams, and which was performed by the 5th AAF in the Pacific from late 1942 thru 1945. The Battle of the Bismarck Sea in early 1943 for example used skip bombing along with mast height bombing extensively and successfully.
