Ep. 489 Doris "Dorie" Miller

Let Them Fight: A Comedy History Podcast

27-02-2024 • 1 hr 33 mins

Today we got one bad seagoing motherfucker for you, dear listeners. Doris Miller was one of many sailors present at Pearl Harbor. And when he looked up into the sky and saw it full of planes with their blinkers on he said, "Not today, Japan!" and hopped on a gun and started firing. It's debatable how effective he actually was on said gun, but his bravery caused a ripple effect that massively changed the treatment of black members of the US Navy. His actions and his incredible impact on history definitely earned him a spot on this podcast. Enjoy!
