Global Times| Updated :2024-04-12 Five Doolittle raiders pose for a photo after they were rescued by Chinese people in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province. In September 2015, Jeff Thatcher, the son of David J. Thatcher, another participant in the Doolittle Raid who was rescued by Chinese people, was invited to China on behalf of his father to attend the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. We hope that the Doolittle Raid Memorial Hall can become an educational base for visitors, allowing more people to understand how 80 brave American pilots and thousands of brave Chinese people united together." Offspring of those American pilots often visit the Doolittle Raid Memorial Hall in Quzhou of Zhejiang Province to pay tribute to the Chinese people for their heroic and valorous efforts.
