MIT Air Force ROTC Det 365

Detachment 365, also known as Doolittle's Raiders, lives in the spirit of James H.

Doolittle (1896-1993), who received his master of science and doctor of science degrees in aeronautics at MIT. His pioneering flights, technological contributions to aviation, and infamous Doolittle Raid on Tokyo in 1942, are an inspiration to all our cadets. They graduate from our program with confidence, self-discipline and integrity, and aspire to the great character and dedication to country o

f leaders such as General Doolittle. At Detachment 365, we are proud to continually produce superior officers and leaders for our nation's military and to the overall benefit of society. We support the "citizen-soldier" concept, which contends that a military force created of the people will best support its people. It is this integration of military instruction in a civilian setting that brings the citizen and the soldier together and in tune with the other. Though MIT is the main campus for Det 365, our students also come from Harvard, Tufts, Wellesley, and Salem State. As a result, our graduates represent many of the nation's best and brightest in both technical and non-technical career fields. They are poised for exceptional service in the military as well as in the civilian sects, particularly in this age of technological advancement, medical breakthroughs and intense foreign relations worldwide.

On this day, 18 April, Lieutenant Colonel James “Jimmy” Doolittle, aviation pioneer and MIT alum, led 16 B-25 Bombers in the first morale-boosting strike of the Japanese mainland. Today, we honor the sacrifices made by all 80 service members. As a detachment, we continue to strive to exemplify this spirit of courage, grit, and determination in all we do!
