Original Caption: B-25 Mitchell bombers sit parked on the runway next to the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, April 17, 2017. The 11 World War II-era aircraft landed at the museum to take part in its celebration of the 75th anniversary of the Doolittle Raid, in which 16 Army Air Corps bombers took off from the USS Hornet (CV 8) to deliver the first strike of the war on the Japanese homeland.
