Got a box of stuff in yesterday from my wives uncle, Retired U.S. Navy. In it there was pics of Lieutenant Colonel James Doolittle and the USS Hornet  with the B-25B Mitchell medium bombers. He was really into the Doolittle Raid and it's historical significance. Very cool! These are getting framed and put on display in my gun room for sure. :)

Wow!! Are these original photos he took, or souvenir photos? 

These are all pretty much stock photos that you see when you do a search on Doolittle Raiders. In addition, some look like they are from the movie "Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo" . The color one is actually a picture of artwork done by I believe William S. Phillips.

Edit to add: it looks like these pictures are from two different posts by two different people. The ones from the OP are pretty much stock pictures. The ones from the second post are a mixture of stock pictures, movie pictures and one from a painting.
