    Is there a particular reason why some cups are upside down?

      That's an older pic from the Raider collection, but the upside down cups are the cups of those who have passed away. Each cup has the name of a Doolittle Raider engraved on it twice. Once to where it can be read while it is upright and the other so it can be read when the cup is turned over.

          Took my youngest daughter on a short flight in a B-25 Mitchell Bomber (Pacific Prowler) at an airshow in Tuscaloosa a few years ago. I think it was based in the DFW Metro but not certain if it still is.

            What a great motivator it must of been to know it was us or them. There was no gray area.

              Staff Sgt. Thatcher still looked like a complete ****** in that picture I guess from last year at 94 years old. I bet he was a beast back in the day. True American Hero.

                  We've lost almost all of that incredible generation who saved humanity from fascism. We could use more like them now. Prayers to all of them.
