The Korean War saw three years of heavy combat take place on the small Korean peninsula, ending in a stalemate that remains contested to this day. This documentary tells the story of the Forgotten War from the point of view of the veterans that were sent to fight it.

A former U.S. Air Force air tanker navigator, Lt. Col. Ken Murray’s career takes us from the horrific accident that killed 70 people at an airshow demonstration to Operation Just Cause in Panama and to the Iraq War. Through it all, we experience air operations, post-deployment divorce, a new career as a famed sports photographer and new loves.

This short film tells the story of WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam War Fighter Pilot Ralph Parr. In addition to rarely seen archival footage, this film features interviews with his biographer, Ken Murray, his stepdaughter Linda Capps, and his stepson Paul McLaughlin.
