In honor of the 60th anniversary of D-Day, NBC news anchorman Tom Brokaw presents the story of a small band of American paratroopers who, through grit and pluck, survived the worst parachute drop of the Normandy invasion, June 6, 1944. A few survivors found their way to a tiny French village called Graignes. Eyewitness accounts from three surviving U.S. paratroopers, and several of the extraordinary French citizens who came to their aid, weave a remarkable saga of blind luck, heroism, mutual cooperation, unspeakable cruelty, and miraculous escape.
