Fighting 17: The Jolly Rogers
Dir: Tom Jenz
This is the story of Navy squadron VF-17, the amazing Jolly Rogers. Flying their beloved "Hogs," the F4U-1 Corsair, they cleared the skies of 154 Japanese planes in 76 days of combat over the Solomon Islands. While never losing a bomber to enemy attack, Fighting-17 destroyed the heart of Japanese fighter command over Bougainville and Rabaul paving the way for the Allied advance.

Pistol Packin' Mama: The Missions Of A B-17
Dir: Tom Jenz
5 crew members of Betty Boop/Pistol Packin' Mama relate what it was like in the grim early days of daylight bombing. Members of the 390th Bomb Group, they led their squadron and sometimes the entire 8th Air Force into action. Enhanced by stunning combat film and personal photos, this is how it was battling fighters and flak 25,000 feet above Hitler's Third Reich, often without fighter support.
