About the Photos

Most of the photos on this site were extracted from reference images (high-resolution tiffs, 20 to 200 megabytes in size) from the Library of Congress research archive. (To query the database click here.) Many were digitized by LOC contractors using a Sinar studio back. They are adjusted by your webmaster for contrast and color in Photoshop before being downsized and turned into the jpegs you see here.

Tokyo Bombed April 18, 1942 by B25's (Doolittle Raid)

The B25 North American medium bomber became tremendously important by lifting the morale of our people when 80 extraordinarily brave US airmen in 16 B25 air crews took off from the USS Hornet and bombed Tokyo...barely 5 months after Pearl Harbor!
