Hi - My father-in-law, Harry Howze, worked with others on the logistics of the Dolittle Raid. He was responsible for having fuel, etc dropped into China for the pilots to use on their way home. Of course that never happened. But we have his notes from the planning sessions. Also notes on planning for petroleum production for the joint war effort. Any interest?
