"The United States airmen who risked their lives bombing Japan were heroes, and so were the Chinese people who rescued them," he told the group.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">羅時(shí)平教授長期以來一直在研究江西與杜立特襲擊有關(guān)的救援工作，他向最近的一群游客講述了展出的褪色照片背后的故事。他告訴參觀者：“冒著生命危險(xiǎn)轟炸日本的美國飛行員是英雄，營救他們的中國人民也是英雄?！?。</span></p> <p class="ql-block">This special exhibition, which is the first of its kind to be held in Jiangxi, allows visitors to gain an understanding of the city's role in the Doolittle Raid rescue.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">這次特別展覽是江西首次舉辦的此類展覽，它讓游客了解這座城市在杜立特突襲救援中的作用。</span></p><p class="ql-block">On April 18, 1942, a group of 16 US bombers took off from the USS Hornet aircraft carrier and air-raided Japanese cities in retaliation for the attack on Pearl Harbor.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">1942年4月18日，一隊(duì)16架美國轟炸機(jī)從美國大黃蜂號航空母艦起飛，對日本城市進(jìn)行空襲，以報(bào)復(fù)對珍珠港的襲擊。</span></p><p class="ql-block">As the group of planes turned south after the raid, they ran low on fuel and crashed in various locations across eastern China. Local residents risked their lives to rescue the parachuting airmen, and helped them evacuate to safety.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">當(dāng)這群飛機(jī)在突襲后轉(zhuǎn)向南方時(shí)，燃料不足，在中國東部多個(gè)地點(diǎn)墜毀。當(dāng)?shù)鼐用衩爸ｋU(xiǎn)營救跳傘的飛行員，并幫助他們撤離到安全地帶。</span></p> <p class="ql-block">The idea for the exhibition began to take shape in 2018, when Luo came across a timeworn business card that had been preserved for 76 years.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">展覽的想法始于2018年，當(dāng)時(shí)羅時(shí)平偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)了一張保存了76年的舊名片。</span></p><p class="ql-block">At a commemorative event that year, Thomas Macia, who is the son of the Doolittle Raid's Crew No 14 navigator James H.

The card captured Luo's attention instantly.</p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color:rgb(176, 79, 187);">在那年的一次紀(jì)念活動中，杜立特突襲隊(duì)14號機(jī)組領(lǐng)航員詹姆斯?H?馬西亞的兒子托馬斯?馬西亞向羅時(shí)平展示了他父親留下的一張泛黃的名片，上面寫著“上饒王家巷”。這張卡片立刻引起了羅的注意。</span></p><p class="ql-block">"This card belonged to Chen Baocong (a local resident)," Luo said.
