Preserving History will outline how we use military combat aircraft to keep alive the history of the combat crews who flew them. Larry Kelly and a group of volunteers at the Delaware Aviation Museum Foundation use the B-25 “Panchito” to travel the country to keep the history of the B-25 alive.
Mr. Kelly will also speak about the B-25 as the centerpiece of the Doolittle Tokyo raid, which was referred to by Admiral Halsey as the most daring raid in military history.
