Here it is, the April Quiz!  This month, the quiz will be split into 3 sections, each containing 3 questions. The winner of each section will receive $20 Cash (U.S.), and the winner of the most sections will receive $20 Cash (there will be a tie-breaker question if needed). Also, there will be a 10th question that will be a bonus, also worth $20 Cash. That's $100 up for grabs for the April Quiz!

This Quiz is about World War II:

10. Bonus Question--How many Doolittle Raiders were on Active Duty the day World War II ended, September 2, 1945, and how many of those Raiders witnessed the surrender ceremony on the deck of the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay on that date?

That's the last part of the April Quiz, good luck!

Hint, you know Google caches sites, right? You can view them even when the site is down.

No telling (until after(, but its the same one I got the answer to the SAC commander who was in the raid.  It has a list of all the raiders, and a mini bio on most of em.  Although I can't confirm it, I would imagine it would say who was where when the war was over, while most sites just list who was shot down in the raid...

Congratulations to bloodandguts on winning the Bonus Question!

The correct answers are:

There were 53 Doolittle Raiders on active duty the day the war ended, and only one person from the raid was on the USS Missouri for the surrender ceremony on September 2, 1945.  That person was Lt Gen Jimmy Doolittle himself.

bloodandguts wins $80 total for getting 2 sections correct, being the winner of the most sections, and getting the bonus question.
