Just over 70 years ago, on April 18, 1942, 18 B-25B Mitchell medium bombers took off from the deck of the USS Hornet to attack the Japanese homeland in America’s first strike back following the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Eighty crewmen took part in the now legendary Doolittle Raid. Today, five remain. You will have the chance to personally thank these brave men at the American Veterans Center’s 15th Annual Conference, from October 25-27 in Washington, DC. We hope that you will join us for this once in a lifetime opportunity to “Celebrate Veterans Day in the Company of Heroes.” Call 703-302-1012 ext. 227 or e-mail avc@americanveteranscenter.org for details.
