Doolittle Raid
“The flight deck of the USS Hornet, April 18, 1942. A B-25 Mitchell lifts heavily from the carrier's pitching deck. Foreground shows deck crew with arms raised in encouragement and an LSO with checkered flag; midground reveals a line of remaining bombers waiting their turn; storm-whipped Pacific waves dwarf the carrier as the strike force begins its long flight to Tokyo.”
