Hi All,

I am wondering if anyone has a complete list of all B-25s that attended the 2010 Doolittle reunion? I have searched for one, but have come up empty handed. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Kris

B-25's I can think of that were there were:
"Miss Hap"
"Yeallow Rose"
"Miss Mitchell"
"Devil Dog"
"Show me"
"Betty's Dream"
"Axis Nightmare"
"Briefing Time"
"Take Off Time"
"Wild Cargo"
"Barbie III"
"Panchito"
"Pacific Princess"
"Old Glory"
"Maid in the Shade"
"Lady Luck"

Plus you had the one at Urbana used as backdrop for things going on there. It was mid engine change. Also the NMUSAF B-25 was used as backdrop for the Raiders. It is on static display. Did I miss any. Sorry if I did.

Thanks for the list, mustangdriver. That really helps me out quite a bit!

When I am in Dayton in April, I am going to have to make a day side trip and check out Grissom. I enjoy reading your posts about happenings there!

Thanks so much. We will be at the reunion at Dayton as well. But if you let me know what day and time you are going to Grissom, I will get you the insider tour.

Think you missed a certain 'D' wearing invasion stripes and British markings from up here in the Northwest that committed some time ago to attend.

NEVER MIND!! Misread 2010 for 2012

The B 25's will base out of Grimes field and then fly to the NMUSAF .
You might contact them to see if they have a list of those attending this year; 2012.
