In the waning days of World War II, a Royal Air Force fighter squadron suffers a tragic toll when a command decision by their leader, a Canadian pilot named Ted Stryker, leads to the deaths of six crew members. The weight of that moment settles on Stryker as a crushing sense of guilt and self-doubt erode his confidence and drive, leaving him unable to climb back into the cockpit.
