Several years ago, I saw a television documentary about the British
Bomber Squadron using bomb skipping in order to destroy German dams
during WW2. //The idea was actually used in 1943. It was very dangerous for
the bomber crew, because the plane had to fly at an altitude of about 60
feet -- less in some cases. There were many casualties.
