Sometimes revenge is not a dish best eaten cold.

| If you are a WWII buff, you can't miss this classic. Released in 1944 long before the end of the war, Hollywood and the Army cooperated in getting this top-secret out before the public, as a morale booster. Think about it: December 7, 1941 and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Just over four months later, on April 18, 1942, the unbelievable mission of launching 16 B-25 Mitchell bombers off of the (short) deck of the U.S.S. Hornet for the purpose of bombing Tokyo. Talk about getting even quickly! The bombs didn't do a strategic amount of damage, but the insult to the Japanese emperor and the Japanese war leadership were, as the ad states, "priceless". The action is realistic; the facts are correct; and real names and locations are utilized. |
