Above and Beyond is the incredible true story of Frank Luke Jr., the first aviator to get the Medal of Honor. When America came into the First World Warfare in 1917, Luke became a fighter pilot in the recently formed US Military Air Service and was soon offering with a fight squadron in France.Seen as a "high-strung, excitable boy," scorned by his squadron mates, and frequently at odds with his commanders, Luke soon became one of the most revered fighter aces on the Western Front side. Exhibiting great audacity and skill in fight, he quickly racked up an impressive range of air-to-air victories, most of them against heavily-defended observation balloons which few pilots dared to assault.Above and Beyond chronicles Luke's most daring objective of all on Sept 29, 1918, which cost him his life, and that he was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.
