El general estadounidense Hudson Kilpatrick es conocido por muchos como la "Caballería Asesina", no por el número de tropas enemigas que ha matado, sino por las suyas propias, debido a decisiones atroces que provocaron numerosas bajas.

In one of the most dangerous missions of the war, an American B-17 pilot volunteers to fly a surrendered Messerschmidt 109 on a daring flight through the heart of Germany to try to prevent the people of London from being terrorized by the V-2 rockets. "Rocket Hunter" tells the story of an amazing pilot and his bombardier brother from the time they are teenagers dreaming of taking to the skies to the dark days of January 1945.
