The squadron motto was,'We take it in the Shorts' if that tells you anything about their morale.

And then they bombed Pearl Harbor,[/QUOTE]
On Jeopardy last night the category was "Capitals" and the question was which one was bombed by Jimmy Doolittle. The guy answered "Berlin". And he was actually a 3-day winner with 77k in his pocket.
