Excellent post! I watched “Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo” two nights ago and you can't help but get that swelling of pride but depressing realization that we had real leadership at one time. I'll watch “Destination Tokyo” later this week though it is largely a fictional tale but nonetheless entertaining.

Yup, the greatest American generation was also the last.

I too like to watch old WWII footage just to remind me that, when I was a kid, my parents and I belonged to that generation.
