OSPREY WWII 12 BOMBAS SOBRE TOKYO The book "Osprey WWII 12 Bombas sobre Tokyo" tells the story of one of the most daring and risky bombing missions carried out during World War II. The mission was led by General Jimmy Doolittle and his team of 16 bombers, who flew from the USS Hornet aircraft carrier in April 1942, with the goal of attacking the Japanese capital, Tokyo, and its industrial centers. The operation was called "Operation Thunderbolt" and it was the first time that American forces had launched a bombing raid on Japan's mainland. The book describes in detail the preparations and planning of the mission, which lasted several months, and involved the development of new technologies and tactics to carry out the bombing successfully. It also highlights the bravery and sacrifice of the crew members who risked their lives to complete the mission. The book begins with an introduction to the historical context of the war, explaining how the United States was forced to respond to the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, and how the Japanese military expansion had reached the Pacific region, threatening the security of the country.
