The Mustang was the fighter that helped secure our victory over fascism, and in the
film's heart pounding climax, the P-51 Mustangs, will fire their engines, gather in the
sky, and in an event never seen or filmed before, fly in mass formation. All their thunder
and glory, passing overhead in a salute to the men of the War, their legacy, and the
planes that carried them into battle.

The Purple Heart Medal
The award we have come to recognize as the Purple Heart actually found its roots not so
much in the desire to create a new medal for military men to wear, as it was in the desire
to honor a great American hero of the past. George Washington was born on February 22,
1732. Nearly 200 years later the American public was preparing for the bi-centennial of
his birth, complete with commemorative events and celebrations. In the process of
researching the life of the Father of our Country in order to plan the celebration,
General Washington's Executive Order of August 7, 1782 was found. Along with it was the
record of his purple Badge of Military Merit and the accounts of the three men who had
received it. On October 10, 1927 Army Chief of Staff, General Charles P. Summerall drafted
a bill to send to Congress in an effort to revive the Badge of Military Merit. For
whatever reasons, the bill received little support and was withdrawn early the following
year.
As the bi-centennial celebration drew closer, General Summerall was replaced by General
Douglas MacArthur, a hero of service in Mexico and World War I, and the son of a Civil War
Medal of Honor recipient. With little public fanfare, General MacArthur began work anew on
General Summerall's proposal to re-establish the Badge of Military Merit. Throughout 1931
the Army quietly designed and created the new award. It was announced on February 22,
1932...the 200th anniversary of George Washington's birth. In honor of the Father of our
Country and the man who established our military's first medal, the Purple Heart would
bear the profile on George Washington on its face. |
