The Last Full Measure

Based on true events, this war drama follows the legacy of William H. Pitsenbarger, a U.S. Air Force medic who saved over sixty soldiers during the Vietnam War but was never awarded the Medal of Honor. Three decades later, Scott Huffman, an ambitious Pentagon staffer, is tasked with reviewing the request for the decoration.
