I cannot imagine the bravery of those Doolittle Raiders that morning. Loaded down in what was essentially a flying gas can with extra fuel, very little flight deck and piss poor weather that day knowing that they were still 600+ miles from Japan with even further distance to get to China once they dropped their ordnance. Essentially a suicide mission, I would not be worthy of shaking hands with any of these fine men. 78 years later, with the advances in technology, these men did it on sheer determination aided by only one of the most reliable planes that could have done this mission. One of the truly greatest military missions in world history.....
I'm so sorry about the passing of your father. I used to crew the B-25H, currently flying as Barbie III. If ever you're in Texas, visit the Cavanaugh Air Museum. That's where you'll find Barbie III

Classic Raiders takeoff. I love it. We tried it once in the B-25H, but our takeoff was a little bit longer than expected
thanks for sharing. In todays culture I am surprised there weren't protests over the aircraft art lol!
Amazing!
