30 Seconds over Tokyo

[grumpy grizzly]

In 1942 during America's darkest hours it needed a hero, some good news. On April 18, 1942, Jimmy Doolittle led 16 brave aircrews on a raid against Japanese cities. Damage was slight but the psycological damage was great. Sadly today none of those brave aircrews are with us, a slow hand salute to you sirs.

April 18, 1775, Paul Revere's ride as well.

Paul never finished the ride, he was stopped by British officers, detained, and escorted back to Lexington. Only Samuel Prescott made it to Concord.
