The compelling untold story of a group of stranded U.S. Army nurses
and medics fighting to escape Nazi-occupied Europe. When 26 Army
nurses and medics - part of the 807th Medical Air Evacuation
Transport Squadron-boarded a cargo plane for transport in November
1943, they never anticipated the crash landing in Nazi-occupied
Albania that would lead to their months-long struggle for survival.
A drama that captured the attention of the American public, the
group and its flight crew dodged bullets and battled blinding
winter storms as they climbed mountains and fought to survive,
aided by courageous villagers who risked death at Nazi hands to
help them. A mesmerizing tale of the courage and heroism of
ordinary people, THE SECRET RESCUE tells not only a new story of
struggle and endurance, but also one of the daring rescue attempts
by clandestine American and British organizations amid the
tumultuous landscape of the war.
