Post Doolittle Raiders call the roll one last time...
My stars, how Heinleinian. I didn't know any services ever responded to a roll call of the dead like this.

My grandfather was a supply officer aboard the U.S.S. Hornet when the Dolittle Raid took off. I never could get him to tell me much about his experiences during WWII, unfortunately. I did learn what the Dolittle Raid was about later, after Grandad died. These guys were the real deal.
