The Giant Begins to Stir
by
William Phillips
The B-25 Mitchell of LtCol Jimmy Doolittle approaches the coast of Japan on the fateful day of April 18th, 1942 as he leads 79 American Airmen on the first strike against the homeland of Japan. After a string of stinging defeats for the first six months of the War, this daring feat was a tremendous morale boost for the American public. For his leadership of the daring raid, LtCol Doolittle was to receive the Medal of Honor.
This extremely rare print is co-signed by 16 of the Doolittle raiders, one member of each crew, including General Doolittle himself.
