DIBBLE First Lieutenant James P. Dibble distinguished himself by extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight against the enemy in the Mediterranean Theatre of Operations on 30 August 1943. On that date, Lieutenant Dibble was the leader of forty-four P-38 aircraft on a vital escort mission to two medium bombardment groups which were attacking the important Marshalling Yards at Aversa, Italy, An aggressive enemy force of approximately seventy-five aircraft was encountered. Lieutenant Dibble skillfully positioned his flights close to the bombers so that penetration was impossible. He led the group with great determination and aggressiveness and his intelligent deployment and courageous tactics caused all pilots to fight a brilliant defensive battle for over forty-five minutes. The overwhelming superiority of the enemy, however, caused severe losses to the fighter defenders while all bomber aircraft returned to base without the loss of a single bomber aircraft. Lieutenant Dibble’s aggressive combat spirit and his faultless leadership under stress of this event were superb. The heavy responsibility of operational control and tactical employment during this period is in the keeping with the highest tradition of a combat fighter pilot. . His actions during this engagement and his fortitude, flying skills and courage reflects great credit upon himself and the Armed Forces of the United States of America..
