Devotion

The story of the U.S. Navy's most famous aviator duo, Lieutenant Tom Hudner and Ensign Jesse Brown. Tom Hudner was a White New Englander from the country-club scene. Jesse Brown was African American and a sharecropper's son from Mississippi. Tom and Jesse became a team when they joined forces as wingmen in Fighter Squadron 32. Their job was to land their planes on the deck of an aircraft carrier--considered the world's most dangerous job. When the Korean War becomes a reality, Tom and Jesse come to the aid of the Marines cornered in the Chosin Reservoir Battle. When one of them is shot down behind enemy lines, and pinned in his burning plane, the other faces an unthinkable choice: watch his friend die or attempt history's most audacious one-man rescue mission.
