“the way the Japs treated POWs...”

...Is why they TOTALLY deserved the firebombings, and having their ASSES NUKED TWICE.

And, they are loyal allies now. I appreciated my time in Yokosuka, Japan. The Japanese were wonderful hosts.

I used to live in Destin Florida a few miles from Fort Walton Beach.

Col. Doolittle ( at that time) trained at the newly Air Base there as the planned the raid and trained pilots.

Their are many places where these great men ate, drank and practiced bombing. The golf course now was the bombing course in a area in Florida that is flat its a neat course to play when you think your playing a mountain course its has some many elevation changes because of the bombing.
