### **About the Doolittle Raid – April 18, 1942**

The **Doolittle Raid** was the first American air strike to hit the Japanese home islands during World War II. On **April 18, 1942**, sixteen B-25 Mitchell bombers took off from the **USS Hornet** in a daring and unprecedented mission to bomb Tokyo and other strategic targets. The raid, planned and led by **Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle**, served as a critical morale booster for the United States and demonstrated Japan's vulnerability to American air power. The mission's success, despite many crews crash-landing or being captured in enemy territory, became a legendary moment of World War II heroism.
