…and then there was one.
Just one surviving Doolittle Raider:
The final Doolittle Raider, who was one of 80 fliers to take off on the first bombing attack of mainland Japan following Pearl Harbor, attended the funeral of his last remaining comrade-in-arms.
Retired Lieutenant Colonel Richard ‘Dick’ Cole, from Comfort, Texas, is now the last of the brave airmen who took off from the USS Hornet on April 18, 1942.
He stood beside his comrade, and friend retired Staff Sergeant David Johnathan Thatcher, who died in Missoula hospital in Montana last week. The 94-year-old former airman suffered a stroke before dying.

On the subject of people and things turning 40…I guess we know what’ll still be safe(ish) to eat at TEOTWAWKI:
World's Oldest Twinkie Turns 40, Still Refuses to Decompose | Oddity Central – Collecting Oddities
40 years ago, a chemistry teacher at George Stevens Academy, in Maine, placed a Twinkie on his chalkboard to see how long it would take to decompose. The question remains unanswered.
