Eagles of Mercy

On June 6, 1944, two young American medics with the 101st Airborne "Screaming Eagles" parachute into France, and become trapped in the small village of Angoville-au-Plain. Medics Robert Wright and Kenneth Moore recount the rigors of basic training, parachuting into Normandy, surviving German anti-aircraft artillery and carrying on their life-saving work.
