On April 18, 1942, the US launched the Doolittle Raid on Japan. Lt Col Horace E. (Sally) Crouch, USAF, Ret., '40, was selected to serve as navigator/bombardier/door gunner. It was the first bomber raid from an aircraft carrier and briefed as a one-way mission. Crouch directed the crew to Tokyo and hit the target before bailing out over China as planned due to insufficient fuel to return to the carrier. Crouch remained in China for more than a year and flew 25 more missions. Upon retirement from the Air Force, he taught mathematics in Columbia schools for 25 years.
