Thirty Seconds over Tokyo, WWII Movie starring Spencer Tracy

(1944) The story of the Doolittle Raid on Tokyo 131 days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, based on the book written by Captain Ted Lawson, one of the pilots.

When the movie was filmed, the fate of all the crew members was not yet known.

Great movie … won the Academy Award for best special effects. I loved watching how the crews trained to fly their B-25′s off the aircraft carrier USS Hornet.

And Spencer Tracy.  What more can I say?
