Скачать или смотреть They Laughed at the American Dumbo Missions — until the Ocean Turned into a Rescue Ground

In World War II, few stories remain as powerful—and as forgotten—as the Dumbo missions.
This film tells the true history of the brave airmen who flew PBY Catalina flying boats across the vast Pacific Ocean, risking everything to rescue downed pilots under enemy fire. They landed on open water, in storms, sometimes within sight of Japanese guns, to save a single life.

From the battles of Guadalcanal, Okinawa, and Iwo Jima, to the final days before Japan’s surrender, the U.S. Navy’s “Dumbo” rescue squadrons carried out missions that defined compassion in the middle of the deadliest war in human history. This is the full story — the men, the machines, and the sea that tried to swallow them both.

Featuring real historical accounts, archival research, and gripping narration, this video explores how the Catalina PBY flying boat became a symbol of mercy, and how its legacy lives on in every modern air-sea rescue mission today
