The Armor That Turned the Tide | How One Surgeon Saved Thousands in WWII

Описание: In the brutal skies over Europe, death came in fragments — steel, fire, and chaos. But one man, Colonel Malcolm Grow, refused to accept that nothing could be done.
This cinematic documentary retells the untold story of the WWII Flak Vest Program — how a single surgeon’s vision, forged from data, compassion, and innovation, saved thousands of airmen from certain death.
From the blood-stained flight decks of B-17s to the laboratories of the Wilkinson Sword Company, witness how medical science, engineering, and courage converged to rewrite the odds of survival in World War II.
The armor may have been made of steel — but its true strength came from humanity.
