I live in Montana and about 6 or 7 years ago one of the two remaining Doolittle Raiders passed away here. He was kind of a local hero. At his funeral the US Air Force did a fly-by of the city with a B-1 Bomber. It was pretty great!
Now that is amazing to hear.
Wow cool :D
I’d be worried if I suddenly see a B-1 suddenly commemorating the Doolittle Raid right above me, and I’m not even in Tokyo
The B1 Lancer?
I'm not American, but the balls on those guys, they must have known in all likelihood they were going to their deaths, and still they stepped up, got the job done, and most survived.
I had to blink twice and pinch myself three times to make sure I wasn’t seeing things 😁👍. Great to see you posting more Baz.
He's the Norm of the historical RUclips channels. Baz posts a video, every, "BAZ."
Your flag over Eglin Field should have had 48 stars. Hawaii and Alaska became states in 1959. Nit picking aside, I really like your dives into little-explored slices of history. Keep on keepin' on!
Interesting fact I didn't realize Hawaii and Alaska joined so late for some reason I would have guessed the 20s.
@@jaythompson5102 wasnt much on a state back then more like a resort for fishing
Damn. Fkn got ‘em.
Go home everyone - the stupid flag has too many stupid stars. Whole video’s scrapped
lol, I was looking to see if anyone else noticed
It's a great day when Bazbattles uploads a WWII related video.
WW2 or medieval battles 😉
I always learn something I didn't know about a particular battle when I watch videos from this channel. For instance, Doolittle's fear of being court-martialed.
Truly a well-done video!
That's an understandable fear. You do something outside the bounds of what was intended, and the first notion is that you'll be punished for it. He was probably immensely relieved with the end result.
He'd still be dealing with pre-war bureaucracy.
I must have missed this, but when was the actual raid supposed to be, officially? I can understand why he went ahead of schedule after that picket ship spotted them, but being that close to the target would've meant the window of opportunity was small to begin with, so how soon was that official date supposed to happen?
@@rustydragonling About ten hours later. The issue was range, by launching early the bombers were unable to get to their landing fields.
@@recoil53 Totally missed that fact. Thank you. 😅
I am Japanese and Its so great video! Due to their low altitude, bombers intrusion was seen by many Japanese citizens. I was impressed some testimony, a lady said "I saw a plane and I even see pilots face, I soon realized its an American plane. The pilot was handsome and it was not Japanese." and a boy said "I was flying a kite and suddenly, a plane was approached my kite. Its very low altitude then I worried the collision of my kite. I think the pilot also saw my kite. Under the air raid warming, we never play kite so he may believed the success of surprise." Some citizens called police but they never believed the story.
My grandfather was washing himself in a stream somewhere in the Philippines and got this strange feeling that he wasn't alone. It turns out a young Japanese soldier was found in the bushes with a hand grenade in his hand. Fortunately he didn't kill my grandfather or himself and was taken prisoner. Later my grandfather stopped some American soldiers that amused themselves by putting out cigarettes on this poor Japanese kids skin. My grandfather was 26 so they called him "Pops" because he seemed so old to them. "Pops" was our slang for father. I always remembered that story
i love your more modern battle coverage, great as always.
I love seeing the historic stories of my Navy coming to life on screen. Thank you for putting this together, Baz! Looking forward to seeing more content from you and love seeing that the pace is picking back up on the channel!
Baz, you are a youtuber who brings History to life- your format of videos is probably the best there is, and I can't tell you excited I am when a new one comes out. For your next video, may I suggest you cover a battle like The Java sea, Or Cape Matapan.
Or if you are looking for a longer video, Operation Pedestal would be amazing. And obviously its only a matter of time before Midway.
Facinating! The modification of strapping brooms onto the bombers was so unexpected lol. The psychological impact of the strike for both America and Japan is really interesting too. Thanks for another great video! BazBattles is really the best.
Always a great thing when Baz posts. Excellent video. Cheers from Tennessee
Same here! East Tennessee boy reporting for duty!
Thanks for the new video!! I always love to see them pop up on my feed!
Never get enough of your stuff!
Keep up the good work!
We love ya, Baz! Keep it up. You're the best at this.
Always informative AND entertaining!
Hope I'm still alive to watch your videos on battle of midway, narrated by our favorite narrator.
He might do coral Sea as well
@@cluster4583 I REALLY, REALLY HOPE he does Coral Sea AND Midway, plus the other 3 carrier battles (Eastern Solomons, Santa Cruz, and Philippine Sea), and in general hopefully, all of the naval battles of the Pacific. Plus those in the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic.
Excellent video! It is good to see you back!
Very good work my friends. So glad to see you again. Please keep it up. Will always be here for you. Have studied military history for over 40 years . Again
Thank you so much.
Incredibly interesting and well-made video! Thank you Baz!
Been waiting a long time for this baz - this was a brilliant chapter of ww2
One of my favorite moments in American aviation history by my favorite animated history channel. Job very well done!!!
Thank you for making another video like this! I made a playlist on my RUclips page exclusively for your World War II videos, specifically anything naval. Now that you've done the Doolittle Raid, I REALLY, REALLY HOPE that you're planning to make your own video for the Battle of Midway, but also the Battle of the Coral Sea, and ANY of the naval battles during the Guadalcanal Campaign. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!
Hot damn always a good surprise when Baz uploads
Loving this channel and it's uploads!
Excellent video because you dig into the details.. I’ve heard the story many times but I learned some new information today. Keep it up!
Glad you are doing video s again!! Thank you for the great work Sir
I remember how I watched your videos a few years ago.
I really liked and still like them.
I especially appreciate the sea warfare series.
Keep the content up!
You are beyond excellent! Thank you Baz!!! ❤
Dude, you're back again! Great video as always.
The narration for these are always the best
Baz Battles for me, is the best Channel of war history, impressive details about each operation of war.
In this raid, the pilots are a true heroes.
BazBattles is getting better and better. Please……. more…… we must have more!😱
the best voice narrator. i wish you my history teacher back then.. i sure play attention every time :)
Damn you re good! I really like all your videos, your specific style...and of course the great narrator! Thank you for doing this!
The Legend is back!!!! BazBattles!!!!
That raid was a tremendous morale booster for the US in 1942.
Not only that, but it caused the Japanese to overreact to a pinprick and rush the battle of Midway which changed the whole war.
excellent storytelling! loved it...
So happy Bazbattles has posted again.
This animations are amazing
Fantastic video. Always quality content
Yarnhub’s animation and now Baz’s bird’s eye view on the Doolittle raid
Gotta love it
Thanks for the video
BazBattles your my hero!
I just finished watching Montemayor's Midway videos and you post this. Epic (we're talking about this video being posted 2 hours after I finished).
Zeros 3 o clock high!
Gunner: Angrily waves broomstick.
Can't wait for the battle of Midway soon 😁 always glad you post again Baz
Great video as usual, we enjoy your woek
NICE WW2 video add into my playlist once again.

Great video!
More Baz Battles content, going to be a great day.
My favourite channel back again..
I love the smell of a new Bazbattles vid in the morning!
nice to have you back !
Couldnt wait to watch the video, i was gonna watch after my break but anyways, great video mate :)
New video yay I love this channel
Welcome back !!! Long time no see.. love ur videos
Read a book about the raid many years ago. It was amazing that they were able to do it. Also if anyone ever has a chance to go to Dayton, OH to the US Air Force Museum there is an amazing display about the raid an all of the individual members of each crew. It is well worth your time and the rest of the museum is something to see.
Great video 📸
4 videos in less than 2 months he's back!
Good stuff thx
Baz Battles coming in clutch
great video
Always Great baz 😁
Great content ! Continue to make episodes about the Hellenistic period and Ancient Greece , for me those are thebest you have on the channel!
Agreed 👍
It seems he is going to cover the pacific theatre nstead as it appears
Why not both modern and ancient?
@@Aelxi they never said they had any problem with modern ones like what's the point of your comment?
@@cluster4583 bruh I was replying to you. BB is covering both ancient and modern, (Throw in some GoT shit for good measure lmao) one at a time so there's no signle minded focus on any of them like you said.
30 Seconds over Tokyo by Ted Lawson is an incredible book. Appreciate the video
Surprise, but as aslways, a pleasant one! Kepp doing the great job! 👍
Your content is cool and your vedios are highly informative
The animation is top notch 👍
Its a good day when BazBattle uploads
I love your channel
May I recommend visiting the Museum of the US Air Force in Dayton, Ohio. There is an extensive exhibit on the Doolittle raid, including a B-25 on a 'carrier deck', MANY artifacts from the actual crew and raid, and many details on the stories of the airmen.
I thought only one minute had passed but I was astonished that 9 minutes had already gone!
U finally posted
welcome back!!
these modern era vids are great
Good to see Alameda NAS represented! Alameda High School's mascot is the Hornet, while that of Encinal (the second high school) is the Jets!
Another masterpiece
More ww2 content pls. Your style is amazing
I love that one can you make the next one about the battle midway plz
This channel is underrated
More Naval Stories!!!!! MORE!!!!
By the way, another great Work!!!
Hope to see Battle of Corals Sea,Midway,Eastern Solomons and Battle of Leyte Gulf and Philippine Sea
I hope you know how much we appreciate these in depth battles. These are the fatass videos I click on when I open RUclips.
Ur back🎉
Nice❤❤❤
Great one Baz✌🏻
One request, can you make a few videos on the British Pacific Fleet and their bombing operations ?
British warships in combat/battle with japanese warships.
Burma Campaign
Battle of Kohima-Imphal
🇬🇧👑🇬🇧👑🇬🇧
I love how real this is. Little huge unexpected twists, just as it happened.
a new Baz video = Adrenaline Rush ⚡⚡⚡
waking up to bazbattles + its a world war 2 video is incredible
awesome 🥳
1:20 _"I like sub commanders. They don't have time for bull, and neither do l."_ (Pearl Harbor 2001)
Oh you're spoiling us! 🙂
Finally he is back
I’d heard much about the bomber crews in China, but never about the crew that “escaped” in the USSR
Escaped more like sat for 5 minutes then the guard opened the cell door
Remember the Soviet Union was allied with Britain and America during the war
Job nailed !
Baz strikes back
An amazing story
Can't wait for Midway!
Battle of midway next !
Jimmy Doolittle to me is one of those guys that you use for that phrase, ‘You may be cool, but you will never be as cool as ____’
I always love the Doolittle Raid. They knew it wouldn't be a major strategic victory but a needed victory nonetheless. They knew there was an extreme chance they would all end up dead or captured, but they still went. They weren't even entirely sure they could all get off the deck, but they still went. They had to launch early, meaning they would probably ditch in Japanese waters or territory, and they still went. A great story of will, determination, and courage of few great men to give their country the boost of morale it greatly needed. A story that should never be forgotten.
They really need to make a movie that gives this story the respect it deserves. Not just as a side note in a movie about Pearl Harbor or Midway.
They did make a decent movie about the raid. Thirty Seconds over Tokyo. Filmed in the 1940s. Based on the book: Thirty Seconds over Tokyo, written by one of the pilots.
What is there to admire? The fact that the Americans dropped atomic bombs on civilians ! Do you understand this or not!? They were peaceful people, old people, children, women! And Japan bombed US warships, not civilians.You have no shame.Bombs containing combined uranium-238 have already been used everywhere! Including Syria and Ukraine, because it infects the earth and the Ukrainians themselves with radiation! You rotten souls will answer for everything!
Burn you in hell for this !
More WW2 vidoes, please!. 😊
