In this footage we see the great, though imperfect, General Billy Mitchell stating that there have been, and are in the United States, those who should be court martialed for their deliberate suppression of air power. The footage above provides the proof the General offered against Naval critics when he sunk a ship from above.
General Mitchell was himself convicted in a court martial when he took on the establishment.
But he was right, and the establishment recognized that fact when it was in their selfish interest to do so.
