Shortly after end of World War II, Jimmy Doolittle called for all the surviving raiders to attend a celebration in Miami Beach. At this time it was decided that an annual reunion be held starting in 1947. Since then a reunion has been held every year (barring a few exceptions). As defined by the raiders themselves, the purpose of this reunion would be three fold: “to renew old friendships, to honor the memory of those who have passed on, and to participate in some activity which is of benefit to the nation, to the Air Force, to the community in which they meet” The reunion is held in April, on or around the 18th, the date of the Tokyo Raid. The reunions have been held in various cities located throughout the United States. One of the most important parts of a reunion is the Goblet Ceremony, which honors those raiders who have passed on. This is a solemn ceremony that involves commemorative goblets that were presented to the raiders by the city of Tucson, Arizona at the 1956 reunion. The Association also awards scholarships to students pursuing education in an aviation related field. Until the 1960’s the Association also gave an award that honored the Air Force unit with the best Traffic Safety Record, but this award has since been discontinued. A reunion generally will also include lectures and talks about the raid, chances for the public to meet and get autographs from the raiders, book signings, community activities, recreational opportunities, luncheons, fellowship, and a gala dinner/dance which caps off the reunion weekend. The Association will continue hold reunions as long as there are Raiders to attend them.

  • Another Perspective on Pearl Harbor, Containing an Epic Story with Powerful Characters Life of Mitsuo Fuchida to Be Unveiled in Upcoming Book, Possible Film
    Another perspective on Pearl Harbor, containing an epic story with powerful characters Life of Mitsuo Fuchida to be unveiled in upcoming book, possible film Donald L. Gilleland, retired in Suntree, served 30 years in the military and is former corporate director of public affairs for General Dynamics Corp. Saturday, December 7, 2013 On Dec. 8, 1941, as part of a declaration of war, President Franklin Roosevelt said, Dec. 7 “ is a date which will live in infamy ...” Since then, many books have been written about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, but most of them are strictly from an American perspective. “Wounded Tiger,” a book about to be published, will give Americans a somewhat different view, because much of the story is told from a Japanese perspective. Written by T. Martin Bennett, “Wounded Tiger” is a historical nonfiction novel based on the life of Mitsuo Fuchida, the Japanese pilot who led the attack on Pearl Harbor. Fuchida was a Japanese hero because of his aviation skills in the war with China from 1937 to 1941. Because of his record in the Chinese theater, he was picked to plan and lead the attack on Pearl Harbor, after which he was promoted and given a personal audience with Emperor Hirohito. Following the war, Fuchida met Staff Sgt. Jacob DeShazer, an American member of the Doolittle Raiders who had spent most of the war brutalized in a Japanese prisoner of war camp, In this photo provided by the U.S. Navy, a Navy launch pulls up to the before becoming a Christian blazing USS West Virginia to rescue a sailor, Dec.

Japan’s expansion had begun in 1931. That year, Japanese troops took over Manchuria in northeastern China. Six years later, Japanese armies swept into the heartland of China. They expected quick victory. Chinese resistance, however, caused the war to drag on. This placed a strain on Japan’s economy. To increase their resources, Japanese leaders looked toward the rich European colonies of Southeast Asia. Surprise Attack on Pearl Harbor TAKING NOTES Recognizing Effects By October 1940, Americans had cracked one of the codes that the Japanese Use a chart to identify used in sending secret messages. Therefore, they were well aware of Japanese the effects of four major plans for Southeast Asia. If Japan conquered European colonies there, it could events of the war in the also threaten the American-controlled Philippine Islands and Guam. To stop the Pacific between 1941 and 1943. Japanese advance, the U.S. government sent aid to strengthen Chinese resistance. And when the Japanese overran French Indochina—Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos—in July 1941, Roosevelt cut off oil shipments to Japan. Event Effect Despite an oil shortage, the Japanese continued their conquests. They hoped to catch the European colonial powers and the United States by surprise.

  • Circular Administration
    Advisory US.Depanment 01 Tronsporlolion Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: A HAZARD IN AEROBATICS: Date: 2/28/84 At No: 91-61 EFFECTS OF G-FORCES ON PILOTS Initiated by: AFO- 800 ; Change: AAM-500; AAC-100 1. PURPOSE. Because aerobatic flying subjects pilots to gravitational effects (G's) that can impair their ability to safely operate the aircraft, pilots who engage in aerobatics, or those who would take up such activity, should understand G's and some of their physiological effects. This circular provides background information on G's, their effect on the human body, and their role in safe flying. Suggestions are offered for avoiding problems caused by accelerations encountered in aerobatic maneuvers. 2. BACKGROUND. Aerobatic flying demands the best of both aircraft and pilot. The aircraft must be highly maneuverable, yet tolerant of G-loads. The pilot must possess skill and physiological stamina. He or she must be daring, yet mindful of the aircraft's limitations as well as his or her own. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular No. 91-48, "Acrobatics-Precision Flying with a Purpose," dated June 29, 1977, discusses some of the airworthiness and operational aspects of aerobatics, but does not consider biomedical factors. The most important of these biomedical factors is the pilot's response to accelerations (or G-loading). The major physiological effects of G-loaaing vary from reduced vision to loss of consciousness. The pilot who understands these effects will be better able to cope with them so that he or she can continue the sport of aerobatic flying. J.

  • Additional Historic Information the Doolittle Raid (Hornet CV-8) Compiled and Written by Museum Historian Bob Fish
    USS Hornet Sea, Air & Space Museum Additional Historic Information The Doolittle Raid (Hornet CV-8) Compiled and Written by Museum Historian Bob Fish AMERICA STRIKES BACK The Doolittle Raid of April 18, 1942 was the first U.S. air raid to strike the Japanese home islands during WWII. The mission is notable in that it was the only operation in which U.S. Army Air Forces bombers were launched from an aircraft carrier into combat. The raid demonstrated how vulnerable the Japanese home islands were to air attack just four months after their surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. While the damage inflicted was slight, the raid significantly boosted American morale while setting in motion a chain of Japanese military events that were disastrous for their long-term war effort. Planning & Preparation Immediately after the Pearl Harbor attack, President Roosevelt tasked senior U.S. military commanders with finding a suitable response to assuage the public outrage. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a difficult assignment. The Army Air Forces had no bases in Asia close enough to allow their bombers to attack Japan. At the same time, the Navy had no airplanes with the range and munitions capacity to do meaningful damage without risking the few ships left in the Pacific Fleet. In early January of 1942, Captain Francis Low1, a submariner on CNO Admiral Ernest King’s staff, visited Norfolk, VA to review the Navy’s newest aircraft carrier, USS Hornet CV-8. During this visit, he realized that Army medium-range bombers might be successfully launched from an aircraft carrier.

  • Tokyo Bay the AAF in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater
    The U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II The High Road to Tokyo Bay The AAF in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater Daniel Haulman Air Force Historical Research Agency DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A Approved for Public Release Distribution Unlimited "'Aý-Iiefor Air Force History 1993 20050429 028 The High Road to Tokyo Bay In early 1942, Japanese military forces dominated a significant portion of the earth's surface, stretching from the Indian Ocean to the Bering Sea and from Manchuria to the Coral Sea. Just three years later, Japan surrendered, having lost most of its vast domain. Coordinated action by Allied air, naval, and ground forces attained the victory. Air power, both land- and carrier-based, played a dominant role. Understanding the Army Air Forces' role in the Asiatic-Pacific theater requires examining the con- text of Allied strategy, American air and naval operations, and ground campaigns. Without the surface conquests by soldiers and sailors, AAF fliers would have lacked bases close enough to enemy targets for effective raids. Yet, without Allied air power, these surface victories would have been impossible. The High Road to Tokyo Bay concentrates on the Army Air Forces' tactical operations in Asia and the Pacific areas during World War II. A subsequent pamphlet will cover the strategic bombardment of Japan.
