If it's fabric wing: stuff gets all goofy bad REALLY fast when you poke rocks onto or through your fabric covered wing. You do have to double stitch a fabric wing at the fuselage. Otoh, Gas tank just dents, would have to be a really large sharp pointy rock to poke a hole even in 1/16 aluminum sheet, even back then fuel was carried in "tern" steel tanks
