Synopsis
Before there were Green Berets or Navy SEALs, the Alamo Scouts conducted top-secret missions in the South Pacific during World War II. This specially-trained elite guerrilla force snuck behind enemy lines, observed Japanese troop strength, mapped potential landing sights and undertook daring rescue missions. In over 100 missions, no Alamo Scout was ever captured or killed in action, but because of the secretive nature of their operations, the exploits of these anonymous heroes were kept classified for over 40 years.
