The story behind this art just gets cooler by the day.
Go ahead and read the Press Release (here).
But don't think for a second that this is simply about flying a bomber across South Dakota.
It gets waaaay better.
Oh. And about the nose art, Dick Cole (sole surviving Doolittle Raider) said that any artwork done on the Raider's B-25s was done with chalk and washed off during the rainy gale on 18 April, 1942. We'll never know for certain about the nose art on #15.
But what's life without mystery, eh?
More to come...
