Doolittle Raiders take to the sky

Family and friends applaud Doolittle Raider Tom Griffin, center, after he exits a PT-17 bi-plane, in which he had just flown in at Columbia Metropolitan Airport on Thurs. Apr. 16, 2009. The 80 Doolittle Raiders formed as a group in Columbia, while training at what is now the Columbia Metropolitan Airport. They meet each year to remember their 1942 Raid Over Toyko. Griffin died Feb. 26, 2013, at a VA facility in Kentucky.

Dick Cole’s hands are worn with age but they were rock steady as he banked the vintage B-25B Mitchell over Lake Murray’s Bomb Island.
