Public demonstration of "fire bomb" and its use supporting U.S. Marines in the Battle of Peleliu in World War II

A U.S. Navy F6F Hellcat airplane is seen parked on a ramp, with a bomb slung under its fuselage. The narrator identifies it as a "fire bomb," containing gel gasoline. Scene shifts to an F6F dropping one from several thousand feet, in a demonstration. The incendiary bomb creates a swath of fire along the ground, in the direction of flight. A flight of two F6Fs repeat the demonstration, dropping their bombs simultaneously, from a formation. Another drops a bomb on a pier at a waterfront. View to the rear from an airplane that just dropped a bomb in a wooded area.
