Final Toast Of The Doolittle Raiders

November 9, 2013, at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, the surviving members of the Doolittle raid on Tokyo will make their final toast to their fallen comrades. The museum is at Wright-Patterson AFB, near Dayton, Ohio.

The toast will be a private affair, but the public is invited to line the museum's entrance drive for their grand entry at 1 PM. There will also be a wreath laying ceremony and a B-25 flyover.

Arrive early that day and you can see a free screening of Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo beginning at 9 AM in the Air Force Museum Theatre.

Wikipedia on the Doolittle raid, in case your history is rusty.
