What do these Doolittle raid heroes have in common with all the groundbreaking Generals that created the Air Force?

They ALL WERE IN THE ARMY!

Since the AF broke away it’s been a mess.

Carry on Fighter Mafia...

They read the names of each of 16 crews, one plane at a time. Descendants stood up while the plane number of their Raider and the names of the four man crew was read.

Very moving.
