My hat's off to you, Tommie. For one, living through the Pacific in WWII. And two, getting on the computer! Wish I could get my grandmother on so she'd have something more to do.

First person stories of WWII are awesome. I had the pleasure of interviewing Jimmy Doolittle in 1985 for our little company newspaper. Of course I had to ask him about the Raid. He must have been asked that a million times but he just smiled and went through the whole thing.

If the left didn't whine about Willie Pete they'd just be whining about something else. That's why they're so fun to watch.

Jimmy nwas a real hero. In WWII we only did our duty, and that is what these young people are doing right now in the Middle East. I am in awe of all of the troups over there. They are doing what we did and in a very heroic way too. May God Bless every one of them.

Good evening and the very best to you and yours.
