EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle, a pioneering American aviator and military leader, as he attaches a Japanese medal to the fin of a 500-lb. bomb on the flight deck of the USS Hornet in April 1942. The moment was a poignant one, marking the preparation for the daring Doolittle Raid, the first American military response to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. On April 18, 1942, Doolittle led 16 B-25 Mitchell medium bombers on a mission to bomb military and industrial targets in Tokyo, marking the beginning of American retaliation in the Pacific Theater of World War II. The raid, which was carried out from the deck of the USS Hornet, demonstrated American resolve and capability in the face of Japanese aggression. The medal presented to Doolittle in this photograph is a testament to the significance of the mission, and the courage and determination of the men who carried it out. This image is an important historical document, capturing a pivotal moment in American military history.
