This program is something unusual: An event to honor the Doolittle Raiders, as they make their “Final Toast” to the other fallen comrades and survivors. That story is told through excerpts of the ceremony in Dayton. Our main focus however is the action with the B-25 Mitchell aircraft. After a brief history, we board B-25 Axis Nightmare for the flight from the Tri-State Warbird Museum There are a couple of B-25 flights with riders, before the 5 aircraft are fired-up and take off for Dayton and the flyover during a wreath-laying ceremony. This flight is captured on the ground, in the air from one aircraft looking at the others, and inside 2 other aircraft during the “pull” or missing man segment.
If you like B-25’s, WW2 History, or the Doolittle Raid this video is a must.

This is a real classic aircraft, used highly during WWII. It is a real treat to see one flying today. Sleek and fast, with 2 beautiful engines. A great Dvd mainly focused on the Doolittle Raid. Great footage of this aircraft too. A must have for any WWII aircraft buff. 5 stars.
