Doolittle Raider takes his last flight - 03-26-2007, 01:15 PM


One of only 16 left has gone for his last flight: Lt. Col. Chase J. Nielsen, a Utah man and member of the famed "Doolittle Raiders" who bombed Japan in 1942 -- in a retaliation attack from Pearl Harbor -- passed away on Friday at the age of 90.

I met one of his comrades at the Houston Gun Collector's Assn. gun show. He said of the 16 that only 7-8 are ambulatory. The gentleman I met was Doolitle's co-pilot.
