Doolittle'' and postmarked at APO 773 in North Africa. Addressed to a Mr. Wheeler at Shell Oil Co., where Doolittle worked prior, letter reads in part: ''…won't be contented until I make a premeditated landing in Berlin. A rather ambitious project but would nicely round out a combat flying career…'' Letter measures 8'' x 10.5'' on 2pp. with folds and toning throughout. Near fine.
