"At Veracru, to floatplanes scouted inland. During one flight, enraged Mexicans fired on the aircraft, scoring at least two hits. The pilot responded by hurling a bar of laundry soap at hi assailants. Despite its comic-opera quality, U.S. Military aviation had made its combat debut."
That's right. The first American Military weapon using heavier-than-air vehicles was a bar of soap. Yes.
