June 5th, 1944... A secret mission is launched prior to the D-Day Invasion. A small elite group of American paratroopers drop behind enemy lines and land right in the lap of the German Infantry. They are outnumbered, unsupported, and racing against the clock. Their sole duty is to stay alive long enough in order to find a strategic location and set up the Top Secret Navigation Equipment needed to guide in the main airborne assault on D-Day. Failure meant the lives of thousands. This “elite group of American paratroopers” is a mix of renegades from different military... units. They are strangers to one another, thrown together at the last minute, with no time to prepare and with two different Commanding Officers. This is a recipe for disaster.

This untold story of these men, their mission and the facts behind it, has remained hidden for over 60 years. [show more]

War action drama based on real events in the Second World War. The film tells the story of the Pathfinders, a volunteer unit of American paratroopers who are given the deadly mission to parachute into Nazi-held territory 30 minutes before the Normandy invasion. The soldiers must then locate and mark strategic 'drop zones' and set up the top-secret navigation equipment needed to guide the primary airborne assault on D-Day, while concealing themselves from the enemy until the invasion gets underway.
