The True Story of the Black Sheep Squadron 
The Marine fighter squadron known as the Black Sheep became the most famous aerial fighter group of WWII. In their nine months together as a combat unit in the Pacific, they shot down over 100 confirmed Japanese planes. Led by Major Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, a former member of the Flying Tigers and the self-proclaimed bad boy of the Marine Corps, his men worshiped him. This is the true story of a group of barely 20-something pilots who rallied behind their troublesome and inspirational commander. TV PG
