The Doolittle Raid was the first American air raid on Japan, carried out on April 18, 1942, during World War II. The operation involved launching B-25 Mitchell bombers from the deck of the USS Hornet (CV-8)—a groundbreaking logistical feat. U.S. Navy sailors, like those depicted in this kit, prepared the bombs for the raid directly on the carrier’s deck, including hand-painting markings and varnishing the armament.
