Pacific War Podcast 🎙️ The Doolittle Raid with Flashpoint History

This podcast is about the Doolittle Raid, the bombing of the Japanese home islands in 1942 with @FlashPointHx Craig and @FlashPointHx discuss everything about the Doolittle Raid of 1942.

After the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor with the simultaneous invasions of Malaya, Thailand, Malaya, the Philippines, Singapore, Guam and Wake, allied morale as at a all time low. America needed to do something to increase morale, to hit Japan back in a significant way. Famous pilot Jimmy Doolittle was chosen to lead a secret operation to hit the Japanese home islands. The USS Hornet would launch 16 modified B-25s to hit Tokyo, Kobe, Yokohama, Osaka and Nagoya.

The planning and training for the operation was done in utmost secrecy and it would be a very risky venture lest the Americans lose two aircraft carriers in the process. The Doolittle Raid was a success, though three pilots died in action and 8 would be captured by the Japanese of whom 3 were executed and 1 died of disease.

The Japanese in retaliation unleashed operation Sei-Go against Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces killing an estimated 250,000 Chinese. This podcast was originally done on the @FlashPointHx history channel. What you are seeing is some unseen and raw footage from the podcast.
