Amazon has a video out thats well worth watching https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J4SR7WM/ref=atv_hm_hom_1_c_obwan_2_5?_encoding=UTF8&pf_rd_i=home&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=2952368242&pf_rd_r=64DQJXHR2G78X16THWTB&pf_rd_s=center-4&pf_rd_t=12401

Tho I wish it got into aircraft a little more theres a lot of good combat clips and its a fine salute to all the brave French who fought in WW2. This squadron not only had a death sentence on their heads if they were taken prisoner but their families were thrown into K-camps as well even if all the Germans did was get wind they were flying for the Allies.

Only a few of the original pilots survived the war. This has always been one of my favorite storys of the war which also included one of my favorite airplanes.
