The bomb that missed the battleship sank a sailor instead

At five in the afternoon on September 6, 1931, every aircraft the Chilean Air Force owned flew over the harbor at Coquimbo and aimed for a single battleship sitting still in calm water. The bomb missed. What it hit instead — and what that miss could not stop — is a story that starts with unpaid wages and ends with a government bombing its own navy. How does a labor dispute over a thirty percent salary cut turn into twenty-six warships in open mutiny against the state that built them?
In this episode, we trace the 1931 Chilean naval mutiny from Petty Officer Ernesto Gonzalez's first cable demanding rescinded pay cuts to the government's full military response, asking how a nation gutted by the Great Depression turned its own bombers on its own fleet.
Person: Petty Officer Ernesto Gonzalez
Location: Coquimbo naval anchorage, Chile
Date: September 6, 1931
Case: the air raid intended for the battleship Almirante Latorre
Status: mutineers surrendered unconditionally at Valparaíso on September 7, 1931; all were pardoned within a year
- On August 31, 1931, enlisted sailors seized the battleship Almirante Latorre and, by dawn, all fourteen ships then at Coquimbo
- The League of Nations had named Chile the country most damaged by the Great Depression, with 130,000 unemployed in a population under five million
- Finance Minister Pedro Blanquier's thirty percent salary cut followed a prior ten percent reduction and the outright cancellation of accumulated bonuses
- The Southern Fleet joined from Talcahuano on September 3, bringing the mutiny to twenty-six ships, plus the Arica and Maipo army regiments on land
- The September 6 raid on Coquimbo used two Junkers heavy bombers, fourteen Curtiss Falcon and Vickers Vixen light bombers, two Vickers-Wibault fighters, and two modified Ford transports, but struck the submarine Quidora instead of the Almirante Latorre, killing one man and wounding another
