Based on Gregory Freeman's book

Another example of the heroic sacrifice of Slavic people during great wars will be seen in THE FORGOTTEN 500 based on a Gregory Freeman book about brave Serbian villagers who risked their lives to save American pilots from the Nazis. Young American airmen, eager to join the war and fight the Germans, took part in often deadly trips from Italy to bomb German oil fields in Romania. They found themselves parachuting out of crippled planes and into the arms of Yugoslav villagers who, despite being surrounded by the Germans, risked their own lives to help the downed airmen in the fight against the Nazis. With crucial fighter support from the Tuskegee Airmen, American cargo planes descended into Nazi territory for the greatest secret rescue mission of World War II.
