Hardly.
I am in awe of the Doolittle Raiders as well as the guys who flew the B-17's out of England. They committed to 25 missions, even though in the beginning it was statistically impossible to complete 25 missions. I am also in awe of the F-105 pilots who flew the aircraft I loaded in Vietnam. They flew the missions, even though the R.O.E. was designed to help the enemy shoot them down over Hanoi and Haiphong.
