Short film focused on the daily air strikes undertaken by the US during WWII that targeted the Japanese held Islands (specifically islands which had been bypassed in the US "island-hopping" strategy). The missions were known as "Milk Runs" comparing the daily delivery of ordnance by military aircraft, to the daily delivery of milk by the neighborhood milkman. This is one of the more entertaining US WWII propaganda films involving the Pacific theater. Footage in this film was shot by the US Marine combat cameramen. Featuring SBD Dauntless dive bomber aircraft.
