    Q fr @dallasfanmatt @HISTORY General sir, did you know any of the raiders, personally? A: I hunted & flew w/ Gen Doolittle after the war. I met him during the war when he came to our base & wondered why I, a lowly flight officer, was leading the group; then promoted me 2x. @TIME

        Gen Doolittle had a lot of guts and was an American Hero. My father flew B-17s in the 8th Air Force during WWII. loved Curtiss Lemay had nothing good to say about Jimmy Doolittle. Said he was a lousy General / leader.

        You were only a flight officer then? That surprises me. Somebody screwed up in not seeing you potential.

        I knew the General. Hunted quail and ducks in the Antelope Valley with him several times. I was fortunate enough to have my dad, an aviator, meet him. Quite interesting to say the least! Dry Sack sherry!
