From the perspective of the appeal of the film and the skill of storytelling, only three stars can be obtained, and one star is given to William Pisenberg, the hero who sacrificed himself to save others.

On April 11, 1966, during the Battle of Abilene in Saigon, Vietnam, when a small unit of the US army was besieged by the enemy and suffered heavy casualties, Pisenberg, an air force rescuer, stepped forward and descended from the sky like a miracle to rescue. The wounded, encouraged them to live, and even took up arms to fight side by side with a group of strangers until they died. The few people who survived because of his bravery and fearlessness have unforgettable the tragic battle, and even more unforgettable this young man who put his life and death out of his mind-he was only 21 years old that year. For this reason, for 32 years, they have been running for Pisenberg to receive the Medal of Honor (the highest honor for American soldiers), and finally, with the unremitting efforts of an investigator of the US Air Force, Scott, to win the honor for the hero. .

It seems difficult or even impossible to achieve the goal with the persistence and hard work of a group of small people. It depends on the persistent belief in the heart, and the unforgettable gratitude and respect for the hero-this is the best for the hero. Commemoration.

Scott Hoffman's efforts in this case that had nothing to do with him are also very commendable, and he even risked ruining his career for this. His wife understands righteousness and has always given him gentle and firm support and encouragement, which most of us cannot do.

A touching story requires not only a hero to look up to, but also a group of little people who push the story forward-the black artillery locator with gunshot wounds on his back, the rookie Jimmy, a serious post-war recruit, and Bill Collector. Ford, who has written his suicide note for many years, Kepp who built a tropical garden for Bill, Tully who was ashamed of his lack of courage to jump off the plane...and Bill's respectable parents, their words, deeds and memories together shaped Bill's image , And why he became a hero.

    Although there are several old coffees to help out, the story is not unprofound. But the unattractive male protagonist has no sense of substitution at all, and the film's rhythm and narrative style are also TV-like. Quite the American theme of CCTV6. 6.2

    It's dull, and the war scenes aren't very well done.
