Default The Last Toast






While the final toast of the Doolittle Raiders will not be open to the public, a live feed of the event will be broadcast on The Pentagon Channel at 6 p.m. EST on Nov. 9. A link to the live stream will be available at www.nationalmuseum.af.mil and www.af.mil.

Default "...to the Doolittle Raiders"

thanks for letting us know FTroop!

Lt. Col. Richard E. Cole(Co-pilot for Doolittle) came to my squadron in 2009 to speak to us, what an honor it was to shake his hand.

I will be raising a glass.

My wife (USAF RN) and I (USAF Pilot) raised a glass with them. It was an honor.
