It's apparently true.

The Italian air force had a few Ju-87s, and rather than employ German dive bombing tactics, which required a lot of planes, they came up with a technique where they'd approach a target ship in a shallow dive, and send their bomb skipping across the water into the side of the vessel. It was called the "Cenni Method", after the pilot who invented it.

Dude, thanks for the chicken and all.

I thing Esposito is my lovely bride. She is busy working two full time emergency hospital jobs right now, but thriving on it, and she is the most proud mother in NC today.

De chicken says you're welcome, buck, buck, bu-kaaaark!!

Tink de lovely bride would be da Esposita, but good for her, too. Was tinkin about de Phil variety of Esposito, de gnarly goalie for de gnarly Bruins back when stuff meant somethin. Young man has good stuff standing behind him; look out NC, here come da Storm Black.

Dat's what me gets for read'n too much into Symon's hip speak.

I would think stuka + shallow glide + anti-aircraft = bad. Hopefully, they were just going to employ it on merchies. Any idea if they ever used it?

Evening tithe... The thing I most enjoy about being on vacation is that I don't have to talk to people. I've calculated that I've interacted with approximately 8,000 people since I came back to the hospital on January 4th; it's nice to have some quiet time...
