Explores the development of the tactics of carrier airpower from 1925 and argues that years of vision, experimentation, and practice by U.S. naval personnel resulted in the innovative and successful practice of dive bombing--which was the pivotal tactic allowing the U.S. to turn the tide of the war in the Pacific against its World War II enemy, Japan.
