Since you post this every year you’ve probably heard me say this but I had the honor to talk with General Doolittle for a whole hour in 1985.
At his house in Carmel, CA, a fellow linguist and myself were honored to chat with him in his home on a variety of topics from the raid to current events at that time under President Reagan.
Definite hero worship on my part. It was an experience I’ll never forget.
And I’ll never forget the picture on his wall of President Reagan awarding Doolittle his fourth star!!
Oh My God. That is so wonderful.
