An Air Force medic who rescued many U.S. troops in the Vietnam War did not receive the highest honor medal after the war. The soldiers who received his rescue at the time started to fight for it and filed a complaint with the Pentagon to pursue the highest medal. One was about to face it. The government bureaucrats who were promoted in the workplace received this old case after being suppressed many times after 40 years. From the original contempt to the in-depth interview and investigation, they discovered the importance of the persistence and honor of this group of Vietnam War veterans. The structure of the film is interviews and interviews. The Vietnam War scenes are intertwined, and the structure is more biased towards a documentary form, so in fact, there are not many levels of advancement in the plot. It is more unilateral to accumulate the audience’s feelings about the event. In order to increase the drama, it is played by a number of senior actors. Let each interview be intertwined with the scene of the war to intensify the emotions, so the first 30 minutes of the film seemed dull and unable to grasp the point. Only in the middle and later stages of the accumulation of sympathy for the air force medical officer, will the same feelings as those veterans who have been rescued. In fact, the high-level pressure described in the first paragraph of the film has no explosive point, and the documentary method is more free from the plot form.
