 The amazingly-detailed true story of "The Doolittle Raid" based on the personal account by Doolittle Raider Ted Lawson. Stunned by Pearl Harbor and a string of defeats, America needed a victory--badly. To that end, Colonel Jimmy Doolittle, a former air racer and stunt pilot, devises a plan for a daring raid on the heart of Japan itself. To do this, he must train army bomber pilots to do something no one ever dreamed possible--launch 16 fully-loaded bombers from an aircraft carrier. Remarkable in its accuracy, this movie even uses film footage from the actual raid.
Based on a true World War II story of several B25 pilots and their crews who volunteer for a secret mission--the first bombing raid on mainland Japan, ingeniously and boldly launched from an aircraft carrier. Recently-married Lt. Ted Lawson is among the volunteers placed under the command of Lt.Col. James Doolittle. Attempting to reach recovery bases in China after successfully accomplishing the bombing, Lawsons bomber crashes on the Chinese coast where he and his crew are rescued by Chinese soldiers.
