摘要

Do you know who Jimmy Doolittle was? It's a question I've often asked in meetings with Capitol Hill staff as a way of explaining how the Air Force Association came into being in October 1945 to advocate for an independent air service. The answer is seldom yes, even though the late Doolittle received the Medal of Honor during World War Ⅱ and became AFA's first president. Perhaps even fewer know about the daring raid that Doolittle led on Tokyo with 79 courageous airmen 72 years ago. But theirs is a story worth honoring, and AFA has worked tirelessly to ensure their brave acts are not forgotten.
