Martin Airport near Baltimore, cut the sky at 340-360 m.p.h., landed for checkups by Martin engineers and Army Air Corps observers. It was one of the Army's (and the R. A.

Their chief targets were the dive bombers which systematically strafed advancing columns of Lord Gort's Army and sometimes machine gunned refugees to slow up the advance...
