Notes: The Korean War. Lieutenant Vic Kirby is in a foul mood when he gets his jet back to base after a rough combat mission. He first chews out his crew of mechanics and when he gets into the clubhouse he nearly gets into a fight with helicopter (referred to derisively by him as a "windmill") pilot Lieutenant Pitcarin whom he doesn't consider worthy of being called a pilot because he feels heliopter pilots have it easy and don't participate in combat the way jet pilots do. After a couple of days of rest Kirby is back in combat and is shot down and captured by the Communist army. His fellow jet pilots strafe the enemy soldiers and Kirby runs for it. He is rescued by a helicopter that bravely faces heavy enemy fire to get to the downed flyer. It turns out that the helicopter is piloted by Pitcarin whom Kirby now has a whole new respect for. - Joe Moore.
