Mission of Honor is the story of Squadron 303, a group of heroic pilots who fought in the skies over England in the Battle of Britain during WWII. These brave men were not just fighting to keep Great Britain free from the Nazis, but also to keep alive the memories of their own countries, which had been caught in the cross fire as Germany tore across Eastern Europe. Equipped with nothing more than obsolete RAF planes and secondhand uniforms, they flew for all of those who had become casualties in one tyrant's quest for power. A Film By Award Winning Director, David Blair
Standing bold with rifle in hand and with the strongest sense of purpose, the sniper is a true warrior. He fights for his country with unconditional parameters to protect it from all who try to destroy it. He is a hunter and his mission is to hunt down and kill any human beings intent on hurting his people or his nation. This is the American sniper and the microcosm of his legendary identity. 2017/color/91 min/NR/widescreen.
KORENGAL picks up where RESTREPO left off - the same men, the same valley, the same commanders, but a very different look at the experience of war. KORENGAL explains how war works, what it feels like and what it does to the young men who fight it. As one soldier cheers when he kills an enemy fighter, another looks into the camera and asks if God will ever forgive him for all of the killing he has done. As one soldier grieves the loss of his friend in combat, another explains why he misses the war now that his deployment has ended and admits he would go back to the front line in a heartbeat. Every bit as intense and affecting as RESTREPO, KORENGAL goes a step further in bringing the war into people's living rooms back home.
