BAZOOKA CHARLIE: The Schoolteacher Who Turned a Piper Cub into a WWII Tank Killer
Discover the unbelievable true story of Major Charles “Bazooka Charlie” Carpenter — a high school history teacher turned WWII hero. Armed with nothing but ingenuity and six bazookas, Carpenter transformed his unarmed Piper L-4 “Grasshopper” into a tank-busting legend.
Highlights:
Battle of Arracourt (Sept 20, 1944): Watch how Carpenter dove his 65-horsepower Cub — slower than a car on the highway — straight at a German tank column.
Tank Ace Status: Credited with destroying or disabling six German tanks, including a Panther and two Tiger I’s — all from a plane made of fabric and courage.
American Ingenuity: See how one man’s defiance turned a liaison aircraft into a weapon that forced the Wehrmacht to rethink its anti-air tactics.
This is the story of the “Mad Major” — a fearless innovator who proved that sometimes, the most dangerous weapon in war… is imagination.
