I've read stories from marines in Vietnam calling in artillery strikes which were sometimes delivered by New Jersey. "We don't target coordinates; we target grid squares."
Yeah they did bombardment, point then at an area and the area will be removed from play. They destroyed like 300 caves and 200 bunkers between Wisconsin and New Jersey.
Wisconsin famously deleted a Korean gun emplacement and the hill it sat on.
