***SOON TO BE A MAJOR HOLLYWOOD FILM***'This is aerial drama at its best. Fast/powerful/and moving.' Erik LarsonDevotion tells the gripping story of the US Navy's most famous aviator duo - Tom Hudner/a white New Englander/and Jesse Brown/a black sharecropper's son from Mississippi. Against all odds/Jesse beat back racism to become the Navy's first black aviator. Against all expectations/Tom passed up Harvard to fly fighter planes for his country. While much of America remained divided by segregation/the two became wingmen in Fighter Squadron 32 and went on to fight side-by-side in the Korean War. Adam Makos follows Tom and Jesse's dramatic journey to the war's climatic battle at the Chosin Reservoir/where they fought to save an entire division of trapped Marines. It was here that one of them was faced with an unthinkable choice - and discovered how far they would go to save a friend.
