| 释义 |
Patrick Murphy was an Irish pilot who mistakenly bombed the border town of Naco, Arizona in April, 1929 during the Escobar Rebellion. Little is known of his personal life, though he may have come from Ardmore, Oklahoma.[1] Bombing of Naco{{Main|Bombing of Naco}}Murphy owned a biplane around the time of the Cristero War (also known as "The Cristiada") in Mexico against the purportedly anti-Catholic and secular government of Emilio Portes Gil. He was hired to aid the rebels by using his biplane to bomb the government-controlled town of Naco, Sonora.[2] He made several attempts in 1929 between March 31 and April 6 to bomb Naco but also, apparently accidentally, bombed the Arizona border town of the same name, destroying various buildings and a car. His poor accuracy has been variously blamed on high winds perhaps combined with the consumption of alcohol by either himself, his 'bombardier', or both.[1] The plane was eventually shot down by Mexican 'Federales' troops, but Murphy escaped to rebel territory and eventually crossed to the United States, where he was immediately arrested.[3][4] LegacyMurphy became the first person working for a foreign power to ever bomb the mainland United States.[5] The second was Nobuo Fujita during the 1942 Lookout Air Raids. The Balladeer Dolan Ellis honored Murphy in one of his songs, The Bombing of Naco, on his Tall Tales, Lost Trails & Heroes album.[6] References1. ^1 [https://books.google.com/books?id=o71SDjU16JwC&pg=PA632&dq=%22a+flier+named+patrick+murphy%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=B12NT4-mCsWIhQfX3IyJCw&sqi=2&ved=0CDUQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%20patrick%20murphy&f=false Edge Effects: The Border-Name Places];Temple, Robert ;iUniverse; 2008; p632. {{DEFAULTSORT:Murphy, Patrick}}2. ^[https://books.google.com/books?id=S-QTAAAAYAAJ&q=%22Patrick+Murphy%22+naco+bombing&dq=%22Patrick+Murphy%22+naco+bombing&hl=en&sa=X&ei=TlmNT4WtFcSFhQect8jjCg&ved=0CFIQ6AEwBw Arizona:a panoramic history of a frontier State]; Trimble, Marshall; Doubleday; 1977; p337 3. ^[https://books.google.com/books?id=JCLlAKMRJuMC&pg=PA67&dq=%22Murphy+simply+laid+low+till+the+fracas+was+over%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=Y3eNT7atJYWJhQfNleyUCw&ved=0CC8Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22Murphy%20simply%20laid%20low%20till%20the%20fracas%20was%20over%22&f=false Sierra Vista:Young City with a Past]; Jackson Price, Ethel; Arcadia Publishing; 2003; p67. 4. ^Reportage on Naco bomber Patrick Murphy 5. ^Our Wall; Bowden, Charles; National Geographic; May, 2007. 6. ^Tracks and Trails - Sounds, tucsoncitizen.com; 21-12-2000 9 : Irish aviators|Irish criminals|Escobar Rebellion|Fugitives|History of Cochise County, Arizona|Place of birth missing|Place of death missing|Year of birth missing|Year of death missing |
