RIP. That operation was genuine heroism of the highest order, and needs a good game to help keep it in everyone's minds. The movie is good, but I don't hear it talked about much. GMT has done a dambusters game. They should do a Doolittle game. |

My great uncle (grandmother's brother) was on the Hornet and I can still remember him talking about watching the bombers take off, how they would just simply drop and disappear off the bow, and how they would anxiously watch as each one slowly began to climb into view again. Simply amazing. Those guys had some serious "attachments." (He also talked about knowing the guys in Torpedo Squadron 8, and about abandoning ship at Santa Cruz, but that's another story…) |
