Reviews in German: Durch strenge Disziplin gelingt es dem neuen Kommandeur einer amerikanischen Bomberstaffel die Verluste zu reduzieren. Allmählich gewinnt er die Sympathie seiner Männer. Doch er selbst zerbricht unter der Last seiner Verantwortung. Dieses hervorragende Kriegsdrama ist einer der besten Filme zum Thema. Ausgefeilt inszeniert mit beeindruckenden Luftaufnahmen und Schauspielern.
