Doolittle Raiders’ 60th Reunion commemorative program, dated April 18, 2002, Columbia, South Carolina. An illustrated souvenir of the reunion, with multiple signatures on the opening page, including Charlie Duke’s bold blue signature with “Apollo 16.”
The readable signatures appear to be:
• Nolan A. Herndon
• Bill Bower — with “Pilot #12”
• David J. Thatcher — with “#7”
• Charlie Duke — with “Apollo 16”
An additional inscription/signature appears in Chinese characters alongside a Romanized name. That signer has not been conclusively identified and is shown clearly in the photographs.
Black illustrated covers with gold-colored borders and lettering surround a program featuring Doolittle Raiders history, crew information, a mission map, a reproduction of the USS Hornet log entry, B-25B specifications, the Raider goblets, and the reunion’s schedule of events.
A distinctive addition to a collection of Doolittle Raiders memorabilia, WWII aviation history, or Apollo-related autographs.
CONDITION
Very good overall condition. The black covers show light surface scuffing and handling wear, most visible under direct light. The photographed interior pages are clean and well preserved, and the signatures are clearly displayed.
Signature identifications are based on the handwriting shown; no independent authentication is claimed. Please review the photographs for the exact program, signatures, and condition.
