In World War II, Doolittle and 79 other fighter pilots ( Doolittle's Raiders ) bombed Tokyo on April 18, 1942, the first air attack on the Japanese capital. Also hit were targets in Yokohama and other cities, scoring a huge victory for United States morale at a time when Japan's position in the Pacific seemed impregnable.
Doolittle was promoted to Brigadier General.
