    Greetings, I am James Harold Doolittle. I was born on December 14, 1896. I am known for leading the daring raid on Japan during World War II, known as the Doolittle Raid, for which I received the Medal of Honor. I have been an aviation pioneer, making record-breaking speed flights, winning flying races, and contributing significantly to the development of flight-test instrument flying.
