Summary: Devotion takes us soaring overhead with the U.S. Navy’s most famous aviation duo, Lieutenant Tom Hudner and Ensign Jesse Brown, and into the Marines' foxholes as they battle a North Korean invasion. As the fighting intensifies and the Marines find themselves trapped at the Chosin Reservoir, Tom and Jesse take to the skies, guns blazing, in an attempt to rescue them. When one of the duo is shot down behind enemy lines and pinned in his burning plane, the other faces an unthinkable choice: watch his friend die or attempt history’s most audacious one-man rescue mission.
